Ina Miller’s llamas gave up their wool for this. Ina dyed the wool in many different colors.
Fourteen students delved into llama wool and soap during The Matthews class, “The Woolie Llama,” taught by Ina Miller.
Ina showed everyone the technique of felting wool around bars of soap. The soap is transformed into a soften woolen loofa. As the soap is used and shrinks, so does the wool!
Just below are more images of tonight’s class.
Ina offers up plenty of direction.
