more horizontally than vertically, right?
If my piece is correct size vertically but too big horizontally, should I keep felting and cross my fingers that it won’t get any shorter!
Dang, just work already!!:hair:
***Never mind, I just went ahead and did it–it finished up fine and while it did shrink a little more vertically, I just pulled the heck out of it and got an extra 1/2" out of it, all I needed.
man! That was actually stressful…
I’m with you, my first felting project was a nail-biter!
E
As far as I know felting always shrink more vertically.
I’ve only done one felting project (in two stages: one for the bag, and one for the I-cord) and both shrank way more vertically than horizontally.
Yep, the rows usually shrink more than the stitches. 
I’m experimenting on an oval rug that’s done on circulars in the round…will let you know how that goes.
The wanderer in me wonders how a log cabin style item will felt??? :think: :think: :think:
