Felting Results



I spent all of Sunday going up and down the stairs checking the felting progress and resetting the washer for another cycle. It took forever! And the 2 colors of yarn didn't felt at the same rate or to the same degree. It was a really good idea to put the parts in a zippered pillow case--the washer's parts would have been totally choked with balls of fuzz without it. I'm not sure I'm happy with how it turned out, but the pieces really need a shave.

I think it looks cool. This might be a silly question, but what are the two little squares?

Not a silly question, they're handle holders. They get sewed, one to each side around whatever you choose for a handle. I have bamboo ovals.
