• Nesting Knitters and Crocheters

    Most knitters and crocheters will have odd ends of wool and most of those will have ended up heading for land fill.  However thanks to Juniper Moon Farm.  I have now found the perfect job for them.

    Using a simple bird feeder, you can offer the birds in your garden the chance to brighten up their nests in fashions latest colours.

    I would love to see nests made with the wool scraps.

      I love it!   This is great – I’m going to do this today.  I used to have sheep and would find bird nests made with  wool woven in with the twigs and grass – they would get it off the fence or wherever it had come loose from the sheep. 

      I give this idea a “thrums up!”

      I have seen nests tat have had bits of wool and embroidery threads in them so it does work.  Nice blog post!
