Paton SWS....

[crochet lefty]

has anyone tried felting with Paton SWS?

The colors are so pretty...I'd love to hear from any Patons users

Yes I made several knitted purses out of it, I LOVE it. It's felts well, it will be slightly fuzzy but you can always shave it.

 

here is a purse I did in a solid color.

 

here is one done in the stripes. Hope this helps!

I've crocheted and felted several items with SWS and found it felts fast and well. I've even hand felted a small coin purse with hot water and a potato masher.

Like Kathy says, SWS felts really fast! About half the time as other wools, but the results are beautiful!

I forgot to add the super fast part, like 3 minutes fast. I crocheted a potholder in lion wool and it took forever to felt.

Thanks for all the comments (even though I didn't ask the question)! I bought some of this on sale just because the colors are so lovely and didn't realize I could felt with it! I'm a felting fool (purses) so I will be giving this a try! Yippee!
