What is Flash Felting? 

Flash Felting is a new service inspired by flash tattoos. Choose from a range of pre-drawn designs to have needle felted into knitwear of your choosing.

Either send us your garment to upcycle, or we’ll find one for you! An effortless way to get bespoke garments made just for you. 

How does it work?

Step 1 - Pick your felt design

Choose any design from Flash Felting. If you're seeking something more bespoke or exclusive, try our commissions.

Step 2 - Tell us more

If you already have a garment, select 'I have a garment'. Tell us its size and colour, and most importantly, check that it fits the garment guidelines.

If you're seeking a new-to-you-knit, tell us your size, style and colour palette. Any specific requests can be left as a note at check out.

Step 3 - Pick or Post your knit

If you already have a garment, time to post it to me. You'll get an email with more info on this. While we can't directly pay for shipping, the cost of postage to me is already discounted from your flash design.

If you'd like a new-to-you knit, I'll send you a handpicked selection to choose from, each made from natural fibres.

Tip: We're limited by what second hand garments we can find, so keep an open mind and be patient if you're looking for something very specific. You'll receive up to 10 options, and will be charged £10 for every 5 options after that.

Step 4 - Sit back and relax while I do the hard bit

Needle felting is a slow craft, and the whole process can take between 2-4 weeks.

If you have any questions or requests, please do get in touch and I'll see what I can do.

FAQS

What is Flash Felting?

It's a brand new service similar to tattoo flash sheets. It's a range of pre-drawn designs that can be felted directly into any knitwear. They can be used to repair damage, cover stains, or just add a bit of whimsy to your wardrobe.

Unlike my other designs, these are not one-offs, so if you'd like something unique to you, check out my commissions.

Can I request edits to the flash design?

For small adjustments like a different colour wool, leave a note at checkout and I'll see what I can do. For any bigger changes to the design itself, get in touch and I'll chat through it with you. 

Do I send you a jumper or do you find me one?

Either. Or both!

You can post me a jumper to felt the design on to, as long as it fits the garment guidelines on my website.

Or, select your ideal size, style and colour, and I will send you a selection of real wool garments for you to choose from. 

How can I send you a jumper to upcycle? 

Pick your design as usual, but instead of choosing a size, select 'I have a jumper' from the drop down. Then I'll send you an email with information on postage.

The cost of postage to me has already been discounted from the flash designs, and you'll get free postage on its way back to you.

Can I wash it after?

Absolutely, but treat them kindly. Like any wool garments, machine washing can cause shrinkage, so prioritise spotwashing before popping it in the washing machine.
