As usual, there is a bit of emergency knitting happening Casa del SheepSpace, and as usual, it’s not for me. Let me introduce you to exhibit A:
A broken clog. My husband’s broken clog, in fact. The poor things did quite well for not being properly felted. Unfortunately, I couldn’t have felted them down anymore and still have them fit his feet, so slightly felted they remained. Until now. Now they are slightly broken, and since I prefer not having bits of clog strewn around the flat, and since I prefer a husband who isn’t looking sadly at the sole of his clog, let me introduce you to exhibit B:
New Lanark Aran wool. Love this stuff. I’ve made two jumpers out of New Lanark’s Donegal Silk blend which are loved so I thought I’d revisit their yarns for a felting project. The top ball is the Heathers in colourway Bramble and the bottom is their Naturals in Natural Black. I love the black. It’s sheepy. It even smells sheepy.
They are now on the needles and progress photos will follow as soon as I’ve got more than just black yarn on the needles. With any luck finished clog photos will appear, too. It would certainly make my husband happy to have clog with less ventilation. :)
