At Kennet Valley Guild, we have a 'Challenge' every three months set by Rosie Price and therefore called 'Rosie's Challenge'. At yesterday's meeting, it was HATS. Lots of knitted hats - and this confection made by me at the Bournville class. Our tutor is a milliner and I asked if she could teach us a bit. This was my result. Note that the fabric used on the base is Tencel woven by me and everything else was chosen to tone/match. All I need now is a wedding to attend!! There is going to be a major celebration in July for my son-in-law's birthday, maybe that would do.
Also at the Guild meeting, I taught the annual How-to-Read-Weaving-Drafts class. They seemed happy at the end but I will watch them to see if they did understand. It is done by weaving paper.
What a wonderful hat! fit for the Lord Mayor's Parade.
