Yorick Felted Sample I / Red Wolf

Yorick Sample I Felted originally uploaded by Red Wolf

This is the first Yorick sample. It’s done in a New Zealand yarn: Naturally Woodland 12 Ply (77% mohair, 14% acrylic 5% nylon)

The mohair felts nicely. The acrylic/nylon coloured bits come through well. It’s still really fuzzy, so it may need a bit more felting to get proper definition on the eyes. The fuzz makes it difficult to see the row of holes that define the top of the skull.

I think this really needs to be done in a less hairy yarn.
