Navy Blue Merino and Soy Bean Top
A while ago I made a few pieces of felt using soybean top and navy blue Merino. This is the layout stage for a felt vessel:
I love the soft, golden sheen of soy bean top
I softly felted the piece, then when it was holding together, I shaped it over a glass jar. It turned out roughly how I’d expected though I’m thinking that it might make an interesting purse with a few adjustments and some sewing.
This is a close up of the texture, it reminds me of something woven or knitted felted into the wool.
I also made a large flat piece of felt using the same coloured blue and lots of soy tops. It’s such a nice colour combination, I just have to decide what I want to make from it now, then dare myself to cut it 🙂
