My Very Own Merino Wool Baselayer Shirts
These are the 100% merino wool interlock shirts I just finished for myself. They all started out in the natural color and then I dyed them. Two blue, one brown and one black. The pic of me in blue is not very flattering, is it? Well, what can I say. I slept in that shirt last night and it got stretched out. I kept warm though. 
For more on my technique, read how I made Jeff’s merino wool interlock baselayers. Or read about all my merino wool interlock projects.

Hello there!
I have been reading through your website and looking at the pictures of everything you have hand made. Soaps, clothing, etc. Wow I am so incredibly in awe of your talents! And as a young women who wants to be a wife, mother and home keeper. I’d love to learn all the skills. Do you have any advice? Where should I start? Thank you! God bless you and your family.

Shani,
Thank you for the sweet compliments. You know I have been keeping this blog for almost three years and I’ve been writing about the things I’ve done a little at a time. So, it is really isn’t that special, just me doing what I do, every day, a little at a time.
As a way of encouragement, I have learned most everything all by myself, with the aid of books. I haven’t been to classes and I don’t have many people around me who are experts at the things I try. Sometimes, I am so frustrated and wish I could ask someone to show me something! But I do have friends here and there and of course, those books. So I work hard to figure things out.
For you, I would suggest you pick one thing you want to learn first. Go to the library and get as many books as you can on the subject. Just read through them, get ideas, get your head around the possibilities, the different techniques. Try to figure out how you want to approach it (because there are so many ways to do just about anything). In your community, in your church, there may be people who know how to do the things, too. Hands on is the best way, and the books introduce you to a wealth of information and cover more ground than a one-hour demonstration could do.
I would love to help you if I can. Please stop by and ask questions. I will try my best to help you.
Love, Wardeh
Why is your wool not itchy???
Also, my bean sprouts keep souring–why? They didn’t used to..
Hi, April! The wool is not itchy because it is very nice and soft merino wool. Merino wool is a very soft wool. I wish you could feel some of this. It is soft even for babies’ sensitive skin.
About your sprouts, it could be a weather change. Perhaps they’re too cold? Have you changed their location or the rinsing routine? Are your sprouts by the refrigerator? I used to keep my sprouts there and they didn’t grow as well. I don’t have anything scientific to prove this, but I believe they didn’t like being by that big mass of electricity and all its currents. If you tell me more, maybe I could help you pinpoint the cause.
Love, Wardeh
