Alpaca wool felt


For my birthday, my parents sent me a little box of thick, colorful, furry felt made from the wool of alpacas from Peru. The felt is colored with vegetable dyes and is really good quality. I am using it very sparingly in a few little crafts (including some Christmas presents for family and friends). It's hard for me to use it because I think I will mess up and waste this rare, lovely felt -- but what's the point of holding onto it and keeping a little pile of felt squares? I am transforming this felt into cool stuff!
