Fiber class 2
Week 2,3, and 4 of my textile class were spent weaving. I am making a scarf. There is a special name for my loom but I don't remember it! The teal yarn is a wool-mohair blend and the multi-colored yarn is wool-nylon.

Fiber Class: Week 1
This term I am taking a fiber class through Homesource at the Eugene Textile Center (1510 Jacobs Drive). It is a really cool store to go in and look around. They specialize in weaving, dyeing, felting and other textile related crafts.
For my first class I learned to needle felt. It is really easy if you have the right tools! You need a special tool that has several needles coming out of it. You also need a foam mat, a solid piece of felt for your "canvas" and wool for your project.
This is what I made:
