After encasing the yarn in roving and wetting it out.
Midway through felting.
The finished shawl.
Some eggs in close-up...
...and some sperm.
The finished piece on a sunny day!
Well, here you have it...
...one of the strangest shawls you're ever likely to see! :)
Even my daughters think it's a little bit weird...
...and they don't believe me when I assure them that the average passer-by won't realize what it is at all...
...and will just think it's just some sort of random design!
I'm looking forward to testing my theory in a crowd of people...
...as soon as it finally cools off enough to wear it :)

Hahaha...Riet. I'll try to get a photograph of it 'in action' when one of my 'daughter-models' are home for a holiday.
XXO-
I'd like to see it on a model as well. Interesting concept, it fits you.
It does look dramatic and strange - I look forward to hearing your report on the crowd reaction to it!
I agree....a bit weird, but then again beautifull!!, sjawl. hugzz...peebee (you did'nt go all weird while i'm on holiday, did you?:))hugzz...peebee
I'm sure you are right and the average person wouldn't have any idea what the pattern means. Do show us a photo of it in action.
The true "fertility scarf". Pretty and strange all in one! ;)
I'll give you all a report when I get around to wearing it! :)
Kelly--Haha...fertility scarf!
You need to loan it to someone who needs the extra fertility luck! It is definitely unique, Heather!
Lindy--You're right...and see whether it works! :)
Awesome! This series would be a great museum installation, the art of science.
Mary--Thanks...but probably more like, "The art of weirdness!!" :)
It`s fab! Don`t ever let anyone try to convince you otherwise. Looking forward to a pic of you wearing it in a crowd! Bet they will all look amazed!
Oh, Jeanette--you are such a sweetie!! XXO-
I can't stop giggling at the thought of someone hearing "I'm wearing a shawl with sperm and eggs on it". Such a creative project!
Vivian--I know...it's quite a conversation starter!! :)
so earthy.
