I always keep a wool blanket in my vehicle in case I happen upon an accident where it may be needed... so far it hasn't thank goodness!

You live in Ohio, make a wrap for your self and line it to either be a reversible or just a warm wrap.

The first time I was "reds" or something with red, I wash in cold water and add salt. My daughters running shorts/shirts never faded and did not have to worry about white sections being pink. No,not wool but might work for the red wool you have. Good luck.

I would always buy a wool blanket for $2.99.... I make hand braided wool rugs.. but you could use it for other things as well.. batting, sew a trendy jacket, lap blankets for several, or even cut up for dog beds at the local animal shelter!!

I totally agree with you about that cake. Just reached out & grabbed me. And me with no cake in the house. Oh well.

Yes, you can then wash and dry it and use the felted wool in a variety of ways, especially in applique. All of my friends hunt thrift stores for wool items, especially XXL men's sweaters (lots of workable fabric).
