welovemarmite Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 anyone done this? I have got a fantastic beginners knitting book but some of the projects are felting and have got half way through one piece before i read the instructions for felting. Its an american book and needs a washing machine that is a toploader...... but we all have front loaders so cant keep putting the knitting in and out. HELP!!

ubereglu Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You could always felt it by hand, or just put it on a shorter cycle. Where felting is concerned things will often reach a felting limit and so not felt much more than by 40%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovemarmite Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 the thought of felting by hand puts me off...... However today i have been very naughty. I found something on the internet late last night about a woman who has bought a potable washing machine that you use for camping. Its perfect. so being very naughty and knowing that i have other felting projects lined up...... i won an auction on ebay and it should be with me early next week............
