Question - when you talk of wool, are you talking about wool yarn, old wool sweaters, felted wool? How do you think a combination of fine steel wool and wool would work? Lanolin and sharpening all in one.....just a thought. I have a woven pine needle basket (small) that my grandmother made MANY years ago that I need to re-do into a pin cushion. Definitely needs weight in the bottom (sand) but a fluffier top would be ideal. Thanks for your input!
