Knitted Tattoos and Bunting



The best padded heart pattern I've come across is Caroline Wilbor's Little Heart Bunting from the Wool Bar, Warwick Street, Worthing.


I made the bunting, adding a letter to each heart for to make named bunting.  The letters are cut from felt and embellished with a little flower sequin.






From this came the idea to knit a tattoo for Mothers' Day.  It was hard to find a box (shadow) frame the right size and depth, to stop the heart pressing up against the glass.  I resolved this by reducing the stuffing. "MUM" is hand stitched to a felt banner, and attached to the back of the frame.

Also available - I "heart" U, 'forever' and can be personalised for Valentines Day.

Selling for £10 at The Wool Bar and Mooey's Mocha Shop, Worthing
