Well, this evening was an interesting experience. I let my husband and sis-in-law help me out with felting some soap. My husband came up with the idea to use un-carded fleece to felt around the soap, and since I have a bunch of un-carded fleece I let him try it. Yeah, No... That doesn't work. It comes out horrible and doesn't felt really well. So, he made it into a felted ball and it looks like a large hair-ball. So when Halloween comes around I was thinking I could be a black cat and carry around a hairball to "spit up".
All in all it was a fun night and I got 3 actual felted soaps, plus the mishap soap which I will clean and re-felt with carded fleece.
Lesson learned: Do not use un-carded fleece for a project that asks for carded fleece. :)
