Handspun God's Eyes

This sunday I am lucky enough to have a stall at the Whealcrafts Tavistock Craft Fair this Sunday so I am franticly trying to make lots of lovely things in time. One thing I am really enjoying is using my handspun naturally dyed wool to make little God's Eyes which I think are adorable!

The outside pinkish wool is dyed with tea (who knew?!), the gray is some of the lovely Mossy's fur, the yellow is tumeric, and the stripy one is brown sheep wool plied with onion peel dyed wool. I think they are a great way to showcase a range of these natural colours in a fairly quick and very cute way.

 I read that God's Eyes are Mexican in origin and were used to protect the home, so hopefully they will give a home a nice secure feel while also looking pretty!
