Actually, it could not be more hand made - the wool is off my sheep and spun. Some dyed with indigo leaves from the garden, some with Buddlea (yellow) from a tree, some not dyed. The orangie-brown is from an alpaca that lives in Waterford. The back will not be hand made- it's cotton fabric I bought.
I think I have a plan to make it into another 16" X 16" cushion - out with the sewing machine.

Yes, it's an AKL - my only loom - so far :). I do love using it, once Ive done the maths on how to warp it with the yarns I have available.
Yes, the name is gaelic - Droim = back, an uan = of the sheep. I was really thinking "off the back of a sheep" after I first sheared mine some years ago.
