Needle-Felted Blanket with Felt Circles

Martha Stewart Living, September 2009

Ivory, butter, and marigold dots dance across a medium-weight wool blanket, adding subtle color and playfulness. Cut felt circles in a variety of sizes, and needle-felt them onto a blanket, a throw, or a wrap. 

Use a store-bought one, or make your own. This blanket consists of about three yards of 50-inch-wide woven-wool fabric.
