Sometimes called a Needle Keep or a Mending Kit, Aprils Fancy is made with scraps of worsted weight yarn. This kit is made in layers. Each Layer is first knitted, embellished and then fulled. Fulling is the technical term for taking a knitted object and then “felting” it to create a firm fabric.
In the past sewing needles were much rarer and much more expensive than the needles we have access to today. A mending kit was a treasured possession and would be considered an amazing gift. So this little item has been designed to keep or give, makers choice.
