Marlene - Felting is when the wool gets shrunk and cant be stretched. Drying in full sun or in the dryer can cause it. You can tell by looking at it if it was a hand knit because you can see where the fibres have joined and melted.
Thanks Ali...ok, another Q? Why would you purposely want the wool to felt? I was looking at some wool the other day at the shops and it said on the wrapper "suitable for felting".


WOJB...still the same as before. Won't change till morning
