Jetsons Scarf
I was going for a retro look here...like something Jane Jetson might wear if they ever got any cold weather in Orbit City.
I wanted to make geometric designs, so I needle-felted different colors of roving in squares, circles and rectangles, trying for an 'olive effect' with the circles (putting a dab of a very different color in the middle of each piece).
Unfortunately, I applied them to a white background, and didn't match them front to back, so there's a good bit of 'show through' after the wet felting.
Sighhh.
...it's still kinda cute, though.
