Bovine Sari Silk Hat- Part 2

Adding additional layers of wool...




                                                 ...to each side of the resist.



                                                Rubbing and rolling the project...



                                                ...until it passes the 'pinch' test.



                                            Cutting the bottom of the hat open...

                                                     ...to remove the resist.



                                           Turning the project right-side out...



                                                    ...and continuing to rub...



                                                        ...and roll the piece...



                                            ...regularly changing its orientation...

                                                            ...for even felting.



                                         Next time: the hat begins to take shape.
