Charleston- Part 5 of 5 (Making Felt!)

Removing the resist and turning the hat right-side out.


                                           After additional rubbing and rolling...



                                                ...the project nears completion.



                                                     Blocking the finished hat...
                                              

                                            ...on an upended spackle container.


                                               (Hand hemming will come later.)



                                          Continuing the 'blue and white' theme...

                        ...my friend combines white merino wool and bright blue silk hankies...



                                       ...to make her first ever wet-felted potholder!
                       

                             Her granddaughter seems rather pleased with it, too! :)


                                                                             
                                                  Next time: it's Christmas!
