YEPEE!! MY FINISHED HAT!!!






My instructor is the same person who sold me my three wonderful boys! They own 90 alpacas, 10 llamas, assorted horses and multiple dogs. She has a wonderful studio!
She sent the sheared alpaca to the mill,, had it composed into wool roving. This particular roving was black/white/brown alpaca. The hat began as 8 layers of roving I placed in alternate directions. I added some water, soap, scrubbing,, placed on the hat form to dry and IT ACTUALLY BECAME A REAL HAT!!!!!!!
