When the shearer was here, he started with the sheep's belly...apparently this is the wool most people discard because it is usually quite short and partially felted. His wife mentioned you could use it as mulch in the garden...hmmm. So I thought I would try it around my newly transplanted cucumbers. It has been quite cold here at night...going down to about 4 degrees, so I thought these nice little woolly sweaters would keep my cukes toasty warm! We shall see.
It does look a little funny.
