Wool & wool blends?

#1

Hi,

I’ve received some donations of wool and wool blend yarns and I don’t know what to do with them. They are absolutely beautiful! But since most of them say they need to be hand washed & all say they can’t be dried in the dryer, I don’t think they’d be good for binkies (blankets) for foster children. What else could I make out of them and still use them for my charity, Central Ohio Binky Patrol? I’m a pretty new knitter so it should be something easy! Thanks!!

Bye,
Lisa

Hats. My double knit wool hat is the warmest hat I’ve ever owned. Single knit should be plenty.

^yep.

Also, scarves, mitts, toques etc

Maybe a felted hat? Once felted they probably wouldn’t get tossed in the wash again. Otherwise it is a risk. :shrug:

BTW…I deleted the duplicate post. It’s not necessary to cross post. :wink:
