These are companion pieces to my Felted Box/Container pattern (which is also free). They can be used for stash busting or if you just like making practical things. You can use them to hold business cards, paper clips, knitting notions, etc. If your brain can imagine it and its small enough, you can put it in one of these little boxes.

I love thinking up things to use all my assorted left over wool from other projects. You could even make a magic ball using a felted join (spit splice) between the colors to avoid ends and knots. Less weaving in and more knitting is always a good thing!

So make lots of these little boxes for yourself or others! Also you should be able to nest them, so you could give them away as a set to some lucky person (or yourself). Have fun and knit on.
