Autumn is coming.....

Autumn is coming and it is time to start thinking about wool, do you spin, hand spinning is easy. Collect some fleece or buy some from Wingham Wools it's very cheap you can then dye the fleece by using simple plants like blackberrys or elderberrys, then you can felt it, or spin it and knit, and crochet. I buy old pure wool jackets from the jumble sales, cut them up, put them on a boil wash in a net bag, they shrink, you dye them, then make bags, cushions, wraps. What about crochet work. buy pet blankets make sure they are wool then dye those, they look much better. Look at the hedgerows, look at the colours, use nature as your colour pallette, you cannot go wrong........
