Voila!
Here are the finished ones I did yesterday. The larger is obviously "not quite right" and all agree that some refining is necessary. The smaller is the result of pulling the sweater material tightly as I rolled. The blue was held with only light pressure on the material. I'll add rick rack to this to give it a bit more whimsy, I think.

There is room for improvement in this design and I'll probably continue to fiddle with it as turning "junky to funky" is very intriguing to me. Any suggestions? I'm not quite satisfied, for instance with the unevenness of the wrapper. It looks to "slouchy" for me. Also, I'm just sure that it could be finished on the bottome better.

Wishing you many creative endeavors and artistic pursuits! May your needles never bend and may your scissors never dull!

Bye.
