I accidentally washed my beautiful, beautiful cream-coloured alpaca scarf and it has felted past the point of no return (or at least beyond my skill).
This is ethically-sourced wool, first shearing from the highest-quality animals (ie baby alpaca) and I know its provenance intimately (DF breeds alpacas
). The scarf was 4ft long (now about 3 ft), horribly expensive and I actually cried when I realised I'd washed it.
I can't bear chucking it out, but I know I will never get round to using it for anything, so can anyone else?
Or perhaps there are some expert de-felters out that might relish the challenge of turning it back into a scarf - you wouldn't regret it.
