Last week at crochet, one of our older ladies who had been without power fir a couple of days, used the time to sort out her craft room. Which meant she brought wool and fabric that she realised she was never going to use, to give away to anyone who wanted it.
One was a 4 kilo ball of wool.
She had bought it at an op shop a few years ago as she thought it was too good to leave there.
She said it was not going home with her so I thanked her and thought that maybe I could do something with it. No one else wanted it. I saw it as a challenge.
This is the mass of wool and an ordinary ball in front which is 100 grams.
Warren thinks it may have been the end of a carpet manufacture. It's quite thin as a single strand. We have cut off a sizable chuck and trying to unravel it so I can crochet it.
I have started a shopping bag using two strands mixed with another ball. After using it, it feels a bit dirty, it may be dust.
