Guest Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I've got a hot pink jumper, worn once and washed once but it's shrunk It's 50% wool 25% polyamide 25% viscose any good to anyone for crafting before I throw it out? maybe you could use the sleeves for sock monkeys or something?? ETA- got 2 jumpers now, mum gave me her hot pink jumper but it's too small for me so you can have 2 jumpers, both only worn once. One is slightly darker than the other.

Lesley Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I think they'd need to be all wool to use for felting, Poet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAJ Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Charity get a rag value even if it is not good enough to sell. I do have a felting bag design that uses a shrunk jumper - the arms beome the handles and the jumper the main body. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
