I started cutting old t-shirts yesterday to make yarn for this project. It was a fun and quick project but I don't recommend using t-shirts with any hint of lycra- they make it a little more difficult to keep the tension correct. Now I am going to try to finish up some pre-felts I need for a special project I'm planning- have a wonderful afternoon!
What a great rug, Kelly!

Thanks Heather....I felt bad throwing them away and knew I would figure something out for them eventually!

ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely things you make, I really like it.
Just keep up the good work, and I will be back to see some more off your great work. Till then, bye Roos
Thank you for the kind words, now just to get back to the felting...I have been lacking some true inspiration....
ReplyDeleteOh, now I know what you mean ...
ReplyDeleteI agree it's not handy to mix the lycra-stretch-rags with the normal cotton ones - but if you separate them, and combine them with socks f.e., the stretchiness won't matter.
