I *love* working with wool. It's soft, warm, and has some amazingly beautiful
colors.

It will shrink. You could check online shops for wool batting, and see what they suggest/recommend for washing instructions.

Please let me know if you don't use all the wool. I'd definitely be interested in buying some.

Oh, there's also "felting" wool -- I don't know exactly how, but my friend does this and makes fabulous purses. There are lots of option working with wool!
