I have been using hand dyed wool, that is already felted for you, from a great source that I found earlier this year. You can also get your wool not felted if you so desire. Melvina has the nicest colors....I am using her Berry Red in my red and cream Necessaries to make the needle pages and the little button bag. It is SO nice to work with....and because it is felted it doesn't ravel along the edges. I have other projects in mind for some of her other colors.
Please take a look and don't hesitate to purchase from her. The customer service is excellent! Add that to a great product, quick shipping....and it doesn't get any better than that!
Check out her online store (hollyhock hill designs) here:

She also carries rug hooking kits and designs.
I love to support other businesses in this tough economy we are all in. Hop over and check her out!
Thank you in advance.
