Felted Wool River Rocks
I've worked on these felted rocks for over three years, not constantly, but little by little. I than kept them in a bag in the closet for about a year. I finally found this glass vase and put them in it with some cholla cactus skeleton pieces I found in Arizona back in February. They are really soft and have a nice weight to them People love to pick them up. maybe over time, I'll make enough to make a rug or bedspread. For the meantime they'll be displayed in the vase. This project was inspired by Ronel Jordaan's designs whose products were a bit out of my price range. Here is a link for a tutorial. I made some of mine by starting them by hand then adding streaks of color and putting them in pantyhose like little sausages and throwing them in the washing machine. img source with another tutorial I finished them with fine wool threads pulled from the roving and using a felting needle, worked them into each rock.
