Felted rocks

Yes, I felted two rocks!

My supplies, a towel, wool roving, a rock, toule

and a bowl of warm soapy water

I began by laying out the roving

then adding more on a criss cross grid

several layers later

adding a little color

now adding the rock

all rolled up

rolled up in the toule

This is after emmersing it in the soap water and squishing it a lot, I mean a lot!!!

 Once squished, a lot, like 5-10 minutes, you rub it alot.

And the end result. The rock on the right was my first and not done well. The left was the second rock I tried which did turn out a bit better. I still need a lot of practice. It was fun to see how the wool turns into felt. Next on the agenda is making some felted balls!
