Bonjour, Chez moi, j'utilise une lessive maison à base de savon de Marseille et de cristaux de soude. Cela convient-il pour le feutrage ? Merci!

Bonjour Mme Jaulin, pas si votre lessive contient des agents blanchissants et des enzymes, vérifiez bien la composition; votre magasin saura vous aider si besoin, même par mail ou téléphone. Bon tricot!

How to avoid the thumb to felt together

In this DROPS video we show you how to avoid the thumb to felt together. Turn the mitten inside-out and place a plastic bag inside the thumb to avoid it felting together. Fasten it with a safety pin - NOTE: Fasten the pin vertically down towards tip of thumb to make it easy to remove after felting. Turn the mitten out again so that it is felted with RS outwards. This mitten is knitted in DROPS Alpaca. You’ll find patterns where you can use this technique by clicking on the pictures below.

Cut up thread ends at approx 12 cm/4 3/4" (both red and medium gray) and use a crochet hook to attach the tassels on the side and some on in the front of the muff. Cut medium gray threads ends approx 10 cm/4" and attach it on the entire back side. Sew the short sides together and sew the long tie on each side.

Felting: Hot pad whit small balls

Felting is so easy and everyone can do it! In this DROPS video we show how to make a hot pad with small balls in Alaska. Wind the yarn around two fingers, after a couple rounds, remove yarn from fingers and continue winding around the yarn until you have a ball. Keep winding the yarn around and around until you have the size on the ball you want. We show how to make two different sizes, but we make the hot pad with the smallest size. Place the balls in a thin stocking and put it in the washing machine with a detergent without enzymes and optical bleach. Are there many stockings with balls, one can add every single stocking in a laundry bag / new stocking, so not all stockings twirl together. Wash at 40 C/104F with normal spin but no pre-wash. Sew balls together until you have the size you want for the hot pad. The hot pad can be wash later at regular wool wash.
