i felted!

melsie · October 2008

so i've been working on re-designing one of my all time new fav things to make... but it just wasn't working for me... so i went out, bought some pretty cheep 100% dyed wool (wallmart... *sigh* i know, but it was way cheaper than the local wool shop) crocheted what i needed, threw it all in the washer with an old towel... (on hot with 2tbs oxy clean - agitate for 15 mins, cold rinse, extra cold rinse and a 20 min toss in a hot dryer). and they look AMAZING! i am absolutely so excited with how soft and fuzzy the wool turned out. Before it was kind of scratchy, very holey (i'm not an excelent crocheter) and kind of un-even...

i can't wait to share pics with you... Monday i think... if everything is ready...
