How to make a colourful felted scarf

Use only wool garments and felt them by washing in the washing machine at 60 degrees. This will shrink them, which means they can be cut up without fraying. Don't use a higher temperature as this could cause colour loss. Steam press when dry.

We cut 20cm-wide rectangles of different lengths and stitched them together, taking 6mm seam allowances, to make a 150cm-long scarf. There is no need to neaten the edges, as felted knitwear shouldn't fray.
