Laying out the 'footer'... ...and covering it with blue-black wool roving. (It looks lighter in this photo than it actually is.) Flipping the resist to side two. Wrapping the selvedge strips to the front side... ...and adding clumps of bamboo viscose thrums. Centering the pre-felt 'mouth'. The process for making this vessel was described…
