It always feels like I've made clown shoes (and clown mittens!).
My HE machine did its best, but everything was still about an inch bigger than I wanted.
A visit last month to the washing machine of Truly Efficient Felting finished everything nicely. And THIS TIME, I've sent for soles in the hope that DH won't go through them quite so fast.

I love how all these came out! Curious: does felting change the color at all? (Or is there just different lighting in the pictures?)
I'm now wondering if my (somewhat old and grumpy) central-agitating top-loader could also secretly be a T.E.F. machine and I just don't know it.
