When I entertained the notion of a knitted
gift for a sewing friend, my first thought
was of a scissor sleeve. After a wee bit of
mulling, I concluded that I could use shortrows
to create a cone shape that would
accommodate scissor blades of various
lengths. By adding some simple stitching on
the flap the gift is that much more special.
The pincushion? Just a variation of one of my
very favorite Felted Heart Milagros (page 82)
all pumped up.
