Inspired to be crafty

After making Idris' mountain picture I kinda got the bug to felt some more. 

It's such a lovely free medium to work with- it comes together so easily and feels intuitive, almost as if the wool shape-shifts at the will of my imagination with very little effort consciously. It's  So completely opposite to knitting or sewing which, for me takes a great deal of concentration and effort.

Having a lazy lie in this morning in bed with William watching a movie on the kindle- I whipped up a little sheep using some wool tops- made sense to make a sheep!

I made a little pumpkin too- bit rubbish- but got me thinking about Halloween and maybe something to add to the decorations I've collected over the last years.

So, inspired by some Waldorf dolls on Pinterest, I made a little autumn witch character who I love!!!

Only a couple of puncture wounds inflicted during the course.

Maybe ill make her a little cat tomorrow.

Or a tiny cauldron or broom. Excited!!!

I love Halloween!!!

And look who's come down from the loft to join in- beautiful knitted witch I treated myself to last year- knitted by a clever lady in the knitting shop in town.
