Wool

Wool

I've been thinking a lot about wool lately.
In Waldorf school, they taught us carding (making sure all the wool fibers are untangled and go in the same direction), felting (turning the wool protein into a piece of fabric by connecting the individual fibers), as well as spinning the wool into yarn, but it was a long time ago, so I feel like I'm starting anew.
It is so much fun!

My first project was making these trivets.

The wool balls are bought so it's nothing much to brag about, but I thought it would be a simple and nice first project (+ add some much needed colour to our kitchen!). I really think these are so much prettier than the usual ones in cork. Next time I'll buy wool and make it all from scratch!
