Laying out a layer of warm brown wool roving...
...and wetting it out.
A layer of white merino is next...
...(laid out in a perpendicular direction).
Handspun wool yarn is applied to the project surface...
...as an embellishment...
...and thin wisps of white wool are added...
...where yarn crosses yarn...
...to help it to 'felt in'.
Mid-way through felting...
...the colored wool is beginning to migrate through the white.
The back side of the scarf/table runner...
...and the yarn-embellished front.
The completed project (back side)...
...and front.
I made this project as a Christmas gift...
...and because it can be used in either of two disparate ways...
...I left it up to the recipient to decide...
...'scarf or table runner'?!?!! :)

Possibly both, on different occasions!
