This is the same DIY kit I offer, but the wool is 2lbs of dark brown Jacob and 6lbs of white Merino blend. The dark brown Jacob is my absolute favorite and a dream to work with. It’s the roving I’d recommend any beginner start with and for any cowboy that uses their tack to hard have a pad made out of. ***
As a fiber artist and horsewoman, I've always wanted to make my own horse blankets. I came upon a method from the Southwest called pulled wool pads that is the perfect method for beginners or old hands when it comes to the fiber arts. Using a latch hook rug canvas and latch hook, a continuous piece of wool roving is pulled up through the canvas in loops. This method for building saddles pads is not only simple, and approachable, but yields exceptionally high quality saddle pads that many cowboys swear by.
This is a complete kit that comes with everything you need to successfully make your first pulled wool pad. I’ve written a comprehensive guide that shows you step by step instructions, complete with pictures and video links.
Kit includes:
PDF guide
Latch Hook
Scissors
Tape Measure
36WX44L Canvas
8 lbs Pure Wool Roving
With this kit you can make saddle pads up to 34 × 34”.
Kit ships same day as ordered.
