It all started with one request.
That's how it happens, one request.
Someone asked where they could find the wool
for Cee's Marriage/Memory Rug
I decided to give it a go.
I have written the pattern for Cee, and others.
I have made my own version with Cee's wool.
Remember the oval tongue rug here
Well it was time to get the dye pots out,
start tearing through piles of wool
and get to it.
One request turned into batches
and batches
and batches
(did I say batches?)
of wool
and string
and cotton thread
and
and
and
It went on
and on.
Wool and more wool,
dyeing and redyeing
string and more string
And then the sun came out and I was ready to cut!
And cut I did.
So much cutting.
with more in my
future
because there is a laundry basket
full of leftovers
waiting
for the process to start again.
One day
the lonely leftover wool will have
some string
and other wool
to join it,
making a complete kit,
one day.
Thank you to the Ladies and Gents of the Wool Circle Club
who trust in me and support me.
Check my Etsy shop if you want
to nab one of the remaining kits.

Happy Stitching whatever your project is.
