My first try at making a rug out of what my wife and her friend said was unspinnable
I have decided to make a peg rug on my home made loom
After an hour or so and actually filling the pegs [ I think thats what they call them]
twice, I did'nt know if it should be pushed down ro slide down.
But I had better spread the colours out more evenly.
There, that is the third batch I have four different types of wool to mix
Well that the fourth batch coming of the pegs , the wools I have used are
Ryland + Suffolk ,Mule ,Jacobs , and some Merino.
I have found quite a large amount even I can't use, it just seems to fall to piece .
Now I have not very much left so my only thought is if it too small
I can let Meg my dog use it . I know she likes sleeping on one made of the same
material when we go to stay at a friends house in Wales.
There we are the last of it , I think it may be o.k. for the dog
I shall get it off and have a look.
Wait a minute Ursula {my wife } has come with a little more . The next job is to
take all the pegs off and finish the job off leaving a little string to fasten
up as tassles .
Well Meg seems to like it anyway , so that one use for it .
