    What other materials can I use besides wool?
    Community Answer
    It is mainly just wool that felts well, but sheep wool is not the only kind of wool. I use llama wool to felt all the time, also you can use angora goat, alpaca, and cashmere wool to make felt.

  • Question
    Can I use normal knitting or crocheting wool?
    Community Answer
    Yes, if it is pure wool. Pull it apart rather than cutting. Stretch open the wool so it is a thin layer. It is harder to felt already spun wool, but it can be done.

  • Question
    Is there a natural/reusable alternative to using bubble wrap?
    Community Answer
    You could definitely use a sponge, or even your fingers if you’re light and gentle. Anything that is gentle but firm will do.
