I'm not a member of the swap, but I wanted to reply to your question. I make wool dryer balls by felting 100% wool balls in the dryer. I use bulky yarn wound into balls, put them in a stocking or knee high to stabilize it and then wash and dry it. I wet it several more times and put it in the dryer to get it completely felted. You can also make smaller felted balls and use them for pin cushions, I just make sure that one side is kind of flat while I'm winding the yarn and felting it so it will sit without rolling around. Have fun.

I received my SS package today from MRS Claus I think I know who it is from but not for sure since there are some who don’t put their state in their info with their board name and avatar. Now I just have to fight the temptation to opening it.

My secret Santa package arrived today. I put it away. I have a 90% idea but don’t want to confirm because I do like the surprise part of it. Looking forward to opening day.

My SS package went out yesterday full of fun stuff. I hope my pal enjoys it all. I forgot to take a picture of stuff inside. ugh. It is going South of me and my person likes the color blue....lol

Oh, I forgot to say I received a package from an Etsy store it must be from my SS. It is flat and square....I wonder what it could be?
