Felted Soap by Grandma Snyder, as we know her on Twitter, has a great easy last minute gift craft children or all thumbs crafters like me will enjoy making: Felted Soap! Felted Soap is not only colourful, but also works as a washcloth and soap together. What do you need? A Bar of Soap, Old Nylon Stocking, Wool Roving. Where can you find Wool Roving? Well Grandma Snyder picked hers up in a local wool shop, so you might try: Aberdeens Wool in Lindsay.
