Felt Farfalle (Bowtie) Pasta
More playfood, this is ridiculously easy to make. You may notice that the finished pasta is a different color than the in-process pasta… My daughter broke my last felting needle while I was wraping the second-to-last felting needle that I had just broken in tape to throw it away… Oy. Her punishment was having to go to the (boring) quilting store to buy me new felting needles. (^_^)
Cut a felt rectangle 1.5" by however long you want. Each inch of length will make one pasta.
Pink the long edges of your rectangle.
Cut into approximately 1" wide sections.
Fold felt into a W the long way, and needle felt, stitch, or heck, glue, in the middle. If you needle felt, don't felt it too much or you will thin the felt and it will rip.
Done! Wasn’t that easy? And aren’t they cute? I don’t know how well they’ll hold up to a playful two year old, I’ll have to wait and see…

I made these a couple years ago in 3 colors and gifted them in jars found at the dollar store. All the little girls on my Christmas list got them
