This pattern for felted can covers has five sizes for a variety of can sizes. The basic forms can be embellished with embroidery, beading or needlefelting. Each can except the largest calls for about 110 yards of a worsted weight pure wool yarn, or a blend that you know will felt well. The largest calls for about 165 yards of the main color and 20 yards of a contrasting color. They are quick projects that make fun gifts.
