I live in Mallorca and have two pet sheep that I rescued when they were babies. One is snowy white and the other a beautiful cinnamon color. I'm going to try this!
My Dad told me that you could make saddle blankets with wool fleece and burlap sacking but he didn’t know how they did it. He said the horses never got sore backs with them.
Bought this Needle /hook in craft shop just in case 😁🤔 couple of years ago didn't know what is for 😂 Your teaching video came out of the blue 👍👌😅amazing!!! I learned something very new and useful! Now going to use my tool sitting in box wating to be used 👍💖😊thank you for your MK video 💝💐🎉🤗
I picked up this tool in a bundle with other crochet hooks at the thrift store and had no idea what it was for. Now I know, and maybe some day will try it. Thank you for the tutorial.
Oh what a wonderful tutorial. I got the needle in with some crochet hooks from a thrift store years ago. I found out the name of the needle online, but didn't have time to put it to work. Now retired and with your instructions , I'll be starting 'another' project....Got time now ! ! Thank you very much. New subbie from upstate NY, to Crafts of Ireland.💙💚💙
Absolutely fascinating, thankyou. I’ve been to Ireland many times on family holidays. You are truly the loveliest people we have ever met. So thoughtful, kind, generous. 💖🇬🇧
Wonderful! I LOVE working with hand processed fibre, being a spinner, so really, really appeals. I’m currently in NZ, but moving to Wales in a months time, so will order a kit when I’ve got a home address again!
I have never heard of this! But I do have one of those crochet hooks with a needle eye on the back end. I got it at a thrift store in a bag of motions, I think. I didn't know what it was for until now. I love this technique. As a crocheter, this looks like something I can do, as soon as I find some wool roving. We don't have a lot of sheep in Oklahoma. lol Thanks for the lesson. Jan
I think you could use thick yarn or t-shirt strips or even hand made string from cloth. Until you get roving, just think you will be so proficient by then.💙💚💙
Locker Hooking was a fad in Australia in the 1970s. Often done with fabric strips and recycled yarn as well in the last few decades. Using fleece makes wonderful floor rug and seat mats/cushions.
Thank you, I'm so happy to have found this video. I saw lumra work in a copy of the ICA book a couple of years ago and have been wanting to try it but have had problems finding a hook. Will be buying a kit when they're available 🙂
You can get Tunisian needles with the needle hole in the end . also look for knooking hook . I am betting a really smart Irish lady thought knooking was a rubbish way to work and transferred it to a decent backing support and a much better result . this is awesome
Wonderful video and I'd like to possible get a kit but I don't see them listed on your website. Will they be available later in the year? Thank you so much!!
@CraftsofIreland Looked on your website and cannot find the Lumra needle for sale there or the kits. Can you direct me where to find this. Thank You 🇨🇦
