Teasels are seed heads, left over at the end of summer when the purple flowerettes have faded and the seeds have scattered.
These were used to fluff up the woven wool, to achieve a softer finish. Or maybe for a patent back scratcher.
These really are the colours of the surrounding hills. The colours are chosen in different combinations to reflect a certain landscape.
Why stop at a suit when you could have........the Shooz!
Or something cutting edge from the innovative fashion section? Don't ask ME what it is, but the production technique is apparently very cool.
Intarsia.....whatever!!
Very Interesting! I love the teasels. Linda
