This is my second proper attempt on felting wool. Remember the bracelet I have felted before? I did the same thing on this one but repeated the whole procedure a number of times until I can barely distinguish the individual stitches. I am quite satisfied with the effect J The photos may not be too good to see the effect of felting. I think I am closer to creating a similar felted bangle on my felted wishlist Wish me luck!

I am going to wear this to office tomorrow I like the jeweled bling bling around it. Looks like a dog collar to me

Felted Bangle - worn

When looked closely – individual crochet stitches were barely distinguishable:

A fellow crocheter posted a contest in the ravelry discussion board (Crochet in the Philippines). Her name is Bheng and she will give away a crochet book:

Finally, she posted the contest details. and i have started on it:

Here is my progress:

This was one of the reasons why i’ve been wanting to have wool yarns. I want to try felting and hehe. it was not easy  as i thought. The yarn did not felt the way i wanted it because my (lack of) patience took over.

I cannot share yet the experience since i am more excited about the result. I will share next time the steps I had taken but i want to share this wrist wrap i was able to make:
