1st time at felting...

Cache is not

Per Joann's website it's 75% wool, 22% acrylic, 3% polyester.

 

I know LB Landscape is not 100%, but it will felt because of the way the yarn is wrapped (rather than blended) but it felts in a bumpy lumpy way.

 

I would try a small swatch and see what happens before you invest in doing a whole bag.

 

Generally speaking though, if you have yarn that will felt, you can use most any bag pattern and a bigger hook. The nice thing about bags is even if it doesn't end up exactly the size you expected, you can still use it.
