Felt is an unwoven fabric and the «recipe» for making it is simple: Wool
+ soapy water + agitation = felt It is said that felt was discovered by a soldier who stuffed his shoes with wool to make his journey more comfortable and when he reached his destination, the wool that had been made wet with perspiration and rubbed by walking, had turned to felt.
Since we are making soap, I typically soak the crock from the slow cooker with all tools in it for 8
+ hours to dissolve and use the
soapy water to help clean all the tools.
