Here are some better pictures of papa's projects this week. He made these both in just a couple of hours.
Tiny stool, baby loves it. |
Made with wood from our land. |
The legs are alder, harvested over a year ago. |
Great bench for the long table we will make one day. |
Also using all wood from the land. |
Better than IKEA. |
A little sanding to do still. |
We laughed about how long it takes to knit up a pair of socks in comparison... and that doesn't include the harvesting, cleaning, spinning & dyeing of the wool. |
"Better than IKEA." lol!! :) i love little stool!!
ReplyDeleteMUCH better than Ikea!
ReplyDeleteVery nice indeed.
yes, and once you knit one sock you feel like you should be done + able to wear them then the reality sets in that you still have another to go! but not much is better than handmade woolen things, and the second sock/mitten/sleeve is i think always faster than the first:)))
ReplyDeleteI love the long bench Papa J! cant wait to see the harvest table :)
