Fiber Blessings
I was at the time, unknowingly blessed. I worked for a company that manufactured goods that used many different types of threads and leather swatches. They were getting rid of all of these so I was given them. I see now it as a wonderful blessing. Read more

Taking a break?
Well not really taking a break as just not using felting wool. I found this yarn and wanted to make a Hyggi shrug type. I think I will have enough to make it, ten balls at 50 grams each. Using a “K” bamboo hook and a half double stitch gives this yarn a very nice… Read more

Accident or on purpose?
I made this piece the other day. I felted it and here is the outcome. Was it an accident or did I do this on purpose? I am gifted yarns from time to time. most know that I only request felting wool. However, I do use novelty (non-felting) yarns too. Many times the skein bands… Read more

I’ve got a speck
I have wanted to attempt a style I call speck work. This is crocheting all in one color then going back in and just put in specks of colors. I was wanting to do all in wool but…I had this stuff called “Pretty Punch” threads so decided to see how this reacted with the felting… Read more

New stitch, maybe
I have been working in half doubles and like them for my work but I decided that I will try the below stitch. It is not a double crochet stitch but a broken half double. I think I might not need as big a hook as I usually use (this is an “L”) using this… Read more

Another new concept
I decided I wanted to do an all cream colored wool design then add the color after it is crocheted. It will then get felted. I think that the color will be contained near where it gets crochet it. Maybe will be like tie dyed look. We shall see. I bought the yarn from https://brownsheep.com/ Read more

Thinner wool yarn?

Tinting “Big Sky” ?
I’m trying to decide if I want to tint the burlap on this piece. I did a little trial in small section of the blue. I don’t dislike it. I plan on trying it on the earth area too. It is watered down acrylic paint. Read more

Getting so close
Well my “I’m Torn II” is just about to be ready to felt. This should be interesting! Using different weights of wool. Decided to felt them all separately. To see the progress Metamorphosis page. I have measured each piece and will measure after felting. Will be fun to see it and then how it will… Read more
