I love this little hat.... felting is interesting. You start on an adult knitting loom and end up with an infant/toddler hat! Felting is more art than science...

cute felted hats! anonymous September 7 2006, 13:39:24 UTC
I love the hats felted! Very cute. I am sad i can't felt here (front loading washer) How does the hat feel after it is felted? Is it soft?

Sara, it feels good. I have felted stuff that doesnt feel good tho, it seems that if the yarn feels good unfelted, it felt good when felted. Its not awfully scentific but that is what i noticed...

You can hand felt altho it isnt so easy. the first things i did were small (the bracelets) and I hand felted those in bowls of hot and ice water... it took a long time, really long... but it works. on a larger project it would probably be really unpleasant....

Are there any places with coin oporated washers you could use?

That hat is absolutely darling. I never would have
thought to felt a hat but that has got to be
warm as anything. Great job!
