Curly Cowl, oatmeal

This one is an elegant seamless hand felted cowl in shades of gray, very warm and cozy. It was made out of British Bluefaced Leicester wool and tussah silk, and decorated with gorgeous undyed Wensleydale fleece locks. It is extremely soft and easy to drape, also double sided -- one side is wool, another is shimmering silk, the absolutely adorable smooth texture. All the materials I've used are 100% natural, including the soap this piece was wet felted with.

Measurements: 26 cm w x 30 cm h --> 10,2" w x 11,8" h, rather S-M size.
Fringe locks are 10-12 cm --> 3,9"-4,7" long.









Happy Warm Wedding

This luxurious ivory nuno felted shawl is made of pure undyed British Wensleydale wool. One side of it is covered all over with smooth and shiny tussah silk threads, so the shawl has absolutely gorgeous combination of woolen and silk textures, supplemented with the fine white and golden lace.
This wrap is totally seamless -- the lace was felted together with wool without any stitching.
It would surely make a perfect accessory for the Winter Wedding! :-)

Approximate measurements: 150x30 cm --> 59"x11,8" without lace fringe.
