So I bought a second hand drum carder that needed a lot of love. I was also given some dirty old and very ordinary alpaca some time back, so thought I would test of the drum carder with the alpaca. There was 3 colours, off white, tan and a small bit of brown. So I thought I would try out resist felting, lets face it, who could resist trying this technique out.
Placed down the clear plastic discs, and soon reaslised that this was going to be impossible, so added coins, and this worked a treat, yes some moved a little, but made adding the brown and the cutting so much easier!
This piece of felt will become a bag eventually.
Also thanks to Jenny Hill of https://www.facebook.com/jhillfelt/ for the great you tube video on this technique!
