These are the beginnings of my fuzzy sheep skins. I used the pattern posted before, and this is what I got for the first 5 rows.
It's very hardy, and can handle the flicker brush without any problems whatsoever!
I noticed it looks pretty striped. I also cut the wool caterpillars to 1" total across, rather than 2" across.
Notice the blotching and striping from above.
So then I changed my pattern to a 1/3 twill where the caterpillars go, and 4 shots of plain weave. I also flick the caterpillars out to pull up the wool pieces before I pushed them into place. So far, the fabric is super thick, fuzzy, and just incredible!
It filled in a lot better with these other techniques.
Now I just worry about sewing it on my machine! And the finishing touches!
I worry too often.
But...
this would totally make THE BEST cat carpet!
So if all fails, Zip and Scout will LOVE it!
