Crows Berate Cat

This is a progress report on a 13" x 13" pillow cover. Method: Nantucket hooking on burlap using over-dyed, re-spun wool yarn. ("Nantucket" means I used yarn instead of the more traditional strips of reclaimed fabric.) I have opted not to log hours spent on this project, as I'm inexperienced at using wool to make pictures.

The idea for the image came as I watched two crows harassing my neighbor's cat, Goblin. He seemed frozen on the spot as their loud cries filled the air.

All you need to hook a picture is a variety of yarns, a hook, and a bit of burlap -- what fun!
