Saturday morning I had a mission, a mission that would end up with me covered in silky fluff!<\/p>\n

Once a year, Wingham Wool Work<\/a> come down south to Shawford<\/a>, and then onto Petersfield<\/a> for the Sunday. I went to Petersfield<\/a> one year, and well it is much easier for me to go to Shawford<\/a>, as that is only about 16 miles away, and a lovely drive!<\/p>\n

Now, the one at Shawford<\/a> is really for the Hampshire Spinners Guild<\/a>, and you have to pay to get in, now I’m not saying anything about the members of the guild, but I would say that the average age is probably early sixties from the ladies I saw there, and before : ) So after my experience last time I decided that there would be no faffing around, military operation, in and out, and that is exactly what I did, and covered in fluff!<\/p>\n

All I wanted really was their selection of the merino silk blend, and they had a pretty good range, none of the silvery black which I got last year, but I may have found another supplier for that, so I now have a pretty big bag of wool rovings to felt!<\/p>\n

And last night I listed<\/a> some corsages, including this one<\/a>,<\/p>\n

\"teal\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I do have more to list, but, you know what it’s like! I have taken on-board comments about a felt tutorial and doing a felt making kit, but so much is going on, that I haven’t done it yet, but I will be!!<\/p>\n
