I've tried findings at the thrift stores, etc.....but there's usually very little in choice. I'd like an assortment of colors in small amts.

I really don't know.....never tried that. I've always just washed wool to shrink it and make it felted to use for wool appliques, not worrying about how much it shrinks. Sometimes, I would wash the wool 2 or 3 times, because it looked like it would still ravel. Never paid any attention was to whether it shrank some more. Sorry.
