Re-Rolling Wool Fibers for Wet Felting

Video Transcript

"For the next step we've been rolling and squishing. I've been doing it for about 2 or 3 minutes. Not very long. I've got plenty of soap and water gushing all over the place so I know I have enough soap and I know I have enough water. Now I'm going to unroll it and we're going to reroll it in the other direction and in the process we can fix our edges because they're usually getting a little bit raggedy at this point. So what I've got, what I'm going to do is, working in my tray, to keep from getting water all over my kitchen. And I'm going to find my end. And it wants to stick to the bubble wrap so I'm going to lay it down very carefully. The felt is starting to form but we're really still working with just a bunch of wet fuzz now. So but what you can do at this point is kind of fold in any parts that are hanging out at the end that you maybe want to bring back in to your bubble wrap roll. Any ends that are uneven. And then as I work my way down I'm going to roll it a little tighter this time. Try and keep everything together. And as I roll up I can keep going. Keep fixing my edges as I go up. And then tie it back up again in the jelly roll. But I've got the other end on the inside now. And I'm going to squish it and roll it for about another 5 minutes."
