My husband, Jay, thinks the whole felting hype is very funny. To him, it's just washed yarn. I, on the other hand, view the transformation of wool into felt as a metaphor for the entire creative process, the journey of an idea from thought to product, which can engage the universal human mind, indeed, the entire planetary consciousness, in a dialogue of understanding, peace and ... and ...
... oh, who am I kidding? It's washed yarn, for cripes sake! Some hot water, detergent, agitation and -- voila! Felt! But what determines accident or art, quotidian or extraordinary, oh, crap or oh, baby? I don't know.
But, as they used to say on Wooster Street, I know what I like, and in that spirit I invite you to come along and see what happens.
Russell is ....
... non-committal.
Love your comments about what Russell is doing. Also, your socks are wonderful. One of these days I'll get around to knitting a pair.
