These remind me of the course I went on Called Have you any wool.

It was by a lady who had worked under Jan Messent who wrote several
books on the matter.

We were taught to make many things with wool etc that was not a clothing
item.

We were taught how to make wrapped pictures and roundels. How to make
hats from cut up bin liners and plastic shopping bags. Also finger
knitting.

If I can find the energy I will take pictures of some of the things I
did and put them up on my website.

here is a site with a list of Jan's books

I had a bad night last night my heart was playing up and I thought we
would have to dial 999.

Hugs

A double response here - thanks to Bruce for sharing such an interesting
site. Really great to see.

Shirley - that sounds like a really fun course, and I look forward to seeing
your pix.

Finally, take care - glad you didn't have to call 999, but, get yourself
checked, dear - as I'm sure you know. We EMS responder types would always
much rather you call sooner rather than later with heart things.

Hugs to you, too,
Ellice
