Extremely easy, quickly done and just lovely. :)

☆ I used special felting wool for these potholders (super bulky one in this case). If you have thinner wool you can use the technique of Navaho knitting.

☆ I wash everything I felt it in a frontloader at 40°C-60°C, sometimes I wash things twice or hotter to make them felt more. It’s usually recommended to put the knitwear in a pillowcase for felting and close it, you can also put some tennis balls in the waching machine along with it and of course towels. Just don’t overload the machine.

☆ In my experience different brands of wool felt very differently.
