Benefits of Needle Punched Polyester Felt

Polyester Felt Products

Polyester felt is a synthetic needle punched felt made from polyester fibers. The polyester fibers are needle punched with a special felting needle, one with small barbs on the end. These barbs pull the polyester into itself, locking together to create a fabric.

Does Polyester Felt? - How-to Questions

:?? Sorry guys- I am a newbie here. I am trying my second Project - first of course being a scarf. I am trying to knit a bag. a tote big enough to carry my knitting supplies where ever I go. I went to Hobby Lobby but couldnt find the yarn the pattern called for so I bought Yarn Bee Frosting and it looks to be 100 polyester.
I dont think this is going to felt is it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. :wall:

Sorry, but it won&#;t felt. Hobby Lobby does carry 100% wool yarns that will definitely felt. Lion Brand Wool, I think, is your best bet at HL. You need animal fibers for felting, and not of the &#;superwash&#; variety, so check the label carefully, though usually the &#;machine washable&#; instructions are pretty visible.

:verysad: yep that is what I was afraid of.
Can you knit a pattern that calls for felting and just not felt?
no I dont think so b/c it would be so much bigger right?
Is there a way to modify felted patterns to a non felted pattern?

I think maybe what I shoudll do to rectify the situation is to find a pattern that does not call for felting.

What do you think?

p.s. Thanks for replying.

Whether you can NOT felt depends on what you&#;re knitting. Since you&#;re knitting a bag, use smaller needles and knit fewer rows, both on the body of the bag and the straps. Shortening the width a bit is also a good idea. Also, you&#;ll need to line the bag so that nothing pokes through (felting prevents that from happening); that&#;s especially important since you want to carry your knitty goodies&#;don&#;t want to lose needles!

And I&#;m sorry I didn&#;t welcome you when I posted before: Welcome to KH! :waving:
