Can wool yarn scraps be recycled into a felted fabric?
I do a lot of needlecrafts so I have yarn scraps of all descriptions & I would like to use them in some productive way. I want to use them to wet felt into something that I could then make into a pillow or whatever. Theoretically, it should work. If anyone has any ideas or comments please let me know.
thanks

Basically you'd need to knit or crochet a "sheet" of fabric and then felt it by washing it & drying it in hot water & heat.

Shoddy & mungo aside, this is a straightforward method:
