Loopy Goes To Work

Knitting by Judy @ 7:12 AM

Somebody followed me to work yesterday. She may have followed me home from OFFF…

OK, not really. This is the Loopy Ewe needle felting kit from Woolpets. I got this awhile ago from The Loopy Ewe (where it is exclusive), but only a bit ago had time I could devote to this project. It was lots of fun, and it really didn’t take very long.

The kit came with everything I needed except a foam pad. The directions were wonderful! Very detailed with lots of step-by-step photographs.

Loopy is up on my bookshelf at work, now, where she can peek over the cube walls and greet visitors.

The Particulars:

  • Loopy Ewe needle felting kit from Woolpets (available exclusively from The Loopy Ewe
  • Needles: Sharp little needle-felting ones that I, being not very good at this at all, spent a lot of time poking my fingers with. Blood sample, anyone?

  • Thought of the Minute
    • The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
