Artwork 1 Title: Hat with folds

 

Materials and Techniques:

Inside: French Merino (brown)

Outside: A mix of wools of different colours from mixed breeds with yarn decorations of 4 different colours from two old socks

 

Wet felted, folds held with thread during drying time, removed once dry

My second hand felted hat. I had seen an image I liked and tried to reproduce something similar with my own choice of colours, technique and design. It was experimental but I’m happy with the result! I was inspired by following one of Mandy Nash’s online tutorial for hat making.
