From sheep's coat to a handbag !


As part of the Roscommon Lamb Festival this weekend there was a Sheep Shearing/knitting event.

The sheep were sheared


The wool was rolled

The wool was then spun


The wool was then knitted

And a couple of hours later made into a handbag!


There was lots of interest in the knitting which was great. Next year, I hope to have all the ladies from the knitting group join in .... you've been warned :o)
