Felted Baskets

Inspired by a gorgeous grey felted bowl by Domestic Aesthetic , I thought I could try the same type of thing with a large piece of felted knitting that I had made years ago.  I had knit and felted the fabric to make a needle roll for my knitting needles. Once it was felted it was way too thick, so it has been sitting in the "no idea" box for quite some time.  So, I finally cut up the fabric to make these 2 felted bowls.  I love them, and they are a great size for me to keep the current knitting project together beside my chair! I searched through my odd button collection for suitable buttons, and sewed them on using DMC cottons.
