It is difficult, especially in felt which is more of a chaotic medium. I have problems taking pictures that do justice to what I have made when there is no natural sunlight. My garden is very shady and the weather is appauling. <br /><br />Never mind, I think my creative journal is best showing successes as well as the not so successful projects. Its a learning process :)Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07101808317736275755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-54449737060250199222009-10-21T06:23:04.347-07:002009-10-21T06:23:04.347-07:00What's going on ... need to see the finish! -J...What's going on ... need to see the finish! -JHarnett-Hargrovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07486168670308150669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-75021507356534182722009-10-18T17:23:18.173-07:002009-10-18T17:23:18.173-07:00Assayya - You have a butterfly garden, wow :)) I t...Assayya - You have a butterfly garden, wow :)) I think I'd like to make one next year too.

You can see the colour on the underside where the fibres push through. Let me know when you get some wool I'll happily share how I do things. I do find with the things I've read that there are subtle differences in ow everybody works so don't worry too much if you realise you do things differently. A technique will find you :)Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07101808317736275755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-32525010968659582892009-10-17T09:36:07.663-07:002009-10-17T09:36:07.663-07:00Jasmine, I use a Mac and can access the site with ...Jasmine, I use a Mac and can access the site with no problem.

I think I will try again on a larger piece to allow more roo with the movement of the kot. I thing I'll use alpaca wool as it can be easier to guide.<br /><br />Crafty - Thank you :) Merino ool is vey soft. And the base is needle felted instead of wet felted as I'm not able to wet felt indoors any more (wrecking my table tops) But this method does leave the wool feeling wonderfully fluffy and soft.Jasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07101808317736275755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-86135439028273438572009-10-17T02:05:57.321-07:002009-10-17T02:05:57.321-07:00this looks lovely, it looks so wonderfully soft......this looks lovely, it looks so wonderfully soft...Crafty Green Poethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02486633917197181851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-70372461232927372042009-10-16T13:48:50.157-07:002009-10-16T13:48:50.157-07:00that's gorgeous and fantastic for a first atte...that's gorgeous and fantastic for a first attempt, very brave to try knotwork! love those little roses too, what are they made from?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872550165815178618.post-88916911858263550232009-10-16T12:51:48.360-07:002009-10-16T12:51:48.360-07:00Susan - Dizzying lines knotwork...
