A large natural black sheep wool rug made from sheared fleece rather than sheepskin. Two fleeces placed side by side with the nap going in opposite directions. Carefully overturned, placed on my protected felting table then three fine layers of black dyed Merino systematically placed on top in alternating directions. Felted until well bonded together. Washed repeatedly in the bath and then dried naturally. Made for the grandchildren to play on at Christmas. About two meters square. Not for sale but will consider repeating
