You will have to forgive me for this post as I am going to blow my own trumpet.  It won’t happen very often as I don’t have alot of self confidence and feel I have more felting passion than talent, but this scarf turned out exactly as I wanted it to and I am ‘uber’ pleased with it.

I placed rings of merino fibre onto the scarf and placed a circle of weld dyed silk around the merino ring.  I kept the inside of the rings free of fibre but covered the rest of the scarf with merino and silk.  I felted the scarf using rolling and throwing techniques and when rinsed and dried carefully ironed the flat areas leaving the little puffs unironed.  I am sooooooo pleased with how this scarf turned out

Unfortunately my photography really doesn’t do this scarf justice.
