Inspirations…
get felt depressed??
Another quote from the feltmakers list from a quote from a quote from a knitters list….
The problems with wool and fleeces….. starts like this…
All fleeces are not created equal. Certain breeds have certain characteristics, ie soft and crimpy, short or long, shiny or matte, and so forth, as an average for the breed. Some merinos are less soft than others, some Romneys are coarser than others and on and on. That aspect is specific to the individual sheep and won’t change.
info… info… info…. and ends like…
On the up side, there are few fleeces that can’t turn into something.
There is always felting, after all, or stuffing for that matter.
Felting… Stuffing…. (they forgot to say Fertilizer… wool grows wonderful tomatoes…)
What’s the difference…
and still more miraculous inventions for the future of felting…
Art Felt and the “easy felt paper”…
Well, if this is the future of felting, with “Pencil Roving” at over 1000USD a kilo, would anyone like to try a sample of pure organic Finnwool fertilizer??
Can’t experienced feltmakers get together and come to some kind of consensus?? Last time it disintegrated into backbiting and unfriendliness…
Despairing of it all in the fertilizer capital of North Karelia….
