Would you like to make your own upcycled product from a worn-out wool garment?
All wool that is not Superwash will felt when washed at high temperatures. Wash the garment at 60 degrees Celsius and shape it while it is damp. It must be washed with something else to be felted properly, but it can be useful to put it in a laundry bag or pillowcase to prevent the wool fibers from spreading everywhere in the machine.
Once the wool is felted, you can freely cut it however you like. Use your imagination or follow a pattern, and have fun!
Other ideas for what you can make of worn-out wool garments:
- Maybe the felted version fits someone smaller in size than yourself?
- A sweater can become a vest if you cut off the sleeves
- Sleeves can become baby pants
- Mittens, hat, PC or mobile phone cover, blanket, pillow, stuffed animal, seat pad
- And the leftovers? They can be used to patch holes in other wool garments
The great thing about felted wool is that what has become flabby, worn and ugly disappears when it shrinks. Another advantage is that you can cut it without it unraveling. This means that you can make something new out of the wool garment even without sewing.
