Description
Students will choose between two small patterns – a maple leaf or pears with leaves. The pattern may be hooked in students’ choice of colors, using transcolor dyed wool. Students will learn how to use the wool to shade the motif using just one piece of dyed wool. Transcolor wool makes it quick and easy to get the desired shading in their chosen project. Transcolor dyed wool is useful for stained glass, flowers, geometrics and even Orientals. It can make quick work of hooking a sky as well. Try it! You’ll wish you’d found it years ago!
