Myriads of Mushrooms
Designed by Grace Schnebly
These little mushrooms knit up quickly and easy to make no matter your skill level. I've created five simple cap patterns and two stem patterns that you can mix and match to make a whole mushroom garden. Use natural colors and needle felted details to create realistic looking mushrooms or bright colors for a more psychedelic look. These would look cute displayed on a shelf and also make great ornaments.
Measurements
Mushrooms range in size from 3" to 5.5" tall, detailed measurements for each piece is given below. These patterns can be easily modified to create mushrooms of all shapes and sizes.
Materials
8 to 20 yards of worsted weight wool that will felt. We used Paton's Classic Wool Merino and Cascade 220. Colors used and detailed yardage required for each piece is given below.*
US 10 (6 mm) double pointed needles
Felting needle (optional if you wish to add spots or other details after mushrooms have been fulled)
Tapestry needle
*Do not use Superwash wool. Beware that some white and off white colored wool will not felt. I know from experience that Cascade 220 #8010 and Paton's Classic Wool in Aran and Winter White will felt.
Gauge
Exact gauge is not important.

Felting
Partially fill a bowl with warm water and add a small amount of dish soap or laundry detergent. Place mushroom pieces in water and let soak for 15 to 30 minutes. Felt one piece at a time by rolling it between your hands in a circular motion. Keep agitating until you're not able to make out the individual stitches. The edges will felt slower than the rest of the piece so you will have to work with them slightly longer. I like to felt mine until there is little to no stitch definition left and the fabric is tight and rigid. It also helps to find a picture of a mushroom similar to the one you'd like to make. Many real mushrooms have ridges on their caps, and you can mimic this by felting your cap less and leaving the stitch runs visible.
Once you've felted the yarn the pieces to your desired size, rinse out soap in clean water and stretch into the shape you'd like. Make sure that bases of stems are flat and are able to stand up. Let pieces to dry overnight.
Finishing
Once piece are dry, attach the caps to the stems. You can use a piece of thread that matches the cap color or a single ply from the cap yarn to make a small stitch securing the pieces together. An easy and quick way to secure them is with a dot of hot glue on the very tip of the stem.
If your mushrooms have a hard time standing up, first trace the shape of the flat bottom of the stem on a piece of felt and cut it out. Fill base with weighted beads or dried beans, then sew the piece of felt over the end of the stem using matching colored thread.
I used size 38 and 40 felting needles to add spots after felting. You can use wool roving or wool yarn.

As you know, cialis is the simply the best pills to make you hard as long as 56 hours.
So second name of cialis is 'weekend pills'. You can take one pill before meeting with girlfriend and be proud of yourself all weekend :)
And of course you must know, you can use cialis with alcohol, so don't forget open bottle of you favorite vine (or Jack Daniel's if you prefer :) )
Where to buy cialis? The best practice - buy cialis online, it's private, inexpensive and and do not need a prescription.

Thank you so much for the mushroom patterns. I would love to make these for my Kinder children.(I teach three-year-olds.) They will love them with my hand made fairy finger-puppets.
Love the small rounded cap. looks just like a 1-up mushroom! planning to knit this up and put a cute little face on it. x3
These are just the kind of thing I like to have in a little scene on a table top. Have you ever felted them in the washer? I have felted many things of different sizes in the washer with great success.
Thanks for the patterns.
I can't believe I missed these!!! I love them.
This works great for my halloween costume...i'm dressing up as decomposition.
thanks!
I love these! I can't wait to make a few and insert something rattly. These would be great baby toys.-Sasha
My fionce despises mushrooms, well...since they're fungus and all, so naturally I'm gonna have to make the whole lot! lol.
Thanks for the free patterns! :)They look great!
I really love these. I have some wooden mushrooms & a glass one & I have drawings which I have done. I am completely potty about anything mushroomy. I must give these a go sometime.
Brilliant. Thank you
Anne

These mushrooms are so charming. My Uncle is a botanical artist who uses watercolor and has painted mushrooms while on one of his many world wide trips, The large flat cap looks similar to one of them as he is able to capture textures so well.
Love these you are such a clever person.
Wow!! These are the cutest ever. I SO need to make some of these shrooms.
Thanks for sharing your patterns.
Those are too adorable! Can't wait to make some.
THANK YOU! My daughter will love getting these on her birthday! thank you thank you thank you :D
