What is thrummed knitting? it is knitting with bits of yarn or roving, to make a fuzzy surface. it can then be fulled or felted resulting in super warm hat, mitten or slippers (or even a cloak!) its like making your own fur, but without harming any sheep in the process. So, it is fun, neat looking, sustainable (no sheep were harmed, etc. ...) and period! (please follow the link to the British Museum for a picture of a dashing Dutch sailor in a thrummed hat) <br></span></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_22051"><span data-offset-key="4jlum-0-0" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_21961"><span data-text="true" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_21962"><br></span></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_22052"><span data-offset-key="4jlum-0-0" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_21961"><span data-text="true" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1506867677121_21962">Please bring yarn you want to work with and knitting needles.
