Brown wool hood
9 August 2022 07:17 pm Whilst I was doing the big clean and tidy on the weekend, I found a few more unfinished projects and stashed them into a container together so that as I feel enthused, I can work on them and they'll all be together in the mean time.
I did find a wool hood made from 95% wool and 5% cashmire which was not really that far from being finished, so I pulled that out and thought it might make a nice lunchtime project- just something to chip away at until it's done. I did a little yesterday, and a bit more today and now the inside seams are sewn down and the face hemmed, I only have the bottom of the cowl to go. And it's so snuggly and soft and a really pretty shade of brown.
Now I'm very keen to get it completely finished so I can wear it to a medieval event in a few weeks time. I have just recently seen photos of the site and there's a gorgeous little medieval dock at the dam which would make for great photos, and the hood would be perfect for the outfit I was going to wear!
The pink, wool kirtle isn't anywhere near finished, so it can wait a little longer.
