  1. Love it! My friend who has been teaching me to spin has a couple of felted hats she made. I tried one on and was hooked! I told her I want to learn to do that, too!

  2. My third one will be a black amish/ranch style hat that I can wear to the barn and care for the sheepy!!
    How is the spinning going? Would love to see how your yarns turn out.

  3. Beautiful! Yes, I think you will need black for the caring of the sheep. Do you knit or spin?

  4. I started knitting a couple of years ago, nothing too fancy. I have a wheel and am planning to learn to spin but waiting for my teacher and my schedule to connect. Meanwhile...had to do something with this awesome fleece! I really love this felting. Want to try and make some wet felted mittens but haven't the first idea how to start. LOL
