I taught a wet felting class two weekends ago, and we had a great time. It's wet and messy, but so much fun working with alpaca wool - luscious stuff - to create a scarf. We used WY alpaca wool --all in the natural shades.
Some of the gals got very creative with their combination of colors. All went away with a lovely, soft, warm scarf.
On Sunday afternoon I was able to get the temperature up high enough in the "sun room" to use it to wet-felt another scarf. I wanted to make one a bit longer, and the floor was the best option for a work space. I made this one with what was left of the cream colored alpaca, with some of the curly baby alpaca mix on the ends for embellishment.
This is a scarf made from the baby alpaca mix.
It looks rather wild – like the pelt of some poor creature!
ReplyDeleteLooks quite "western". Very pretty.
