Hi all.

Today is experimenting day.  I have just made some natural black alpaca batts and felted a sample. It felted into a nice strong piece but seamed to shed short fibres when I was fulling it. Added a little more soap and hot water and rubbed it some more and this seemed to help, just brushed off the lose bits and it is drying now. At one point it was very fussy which I kind of liked, made an interesting felt but wouldn't be too good if it continued to shed. Its drying now and I will let you know how the finished piece looks.
