Pretty Ponytails

Transform an elastic hair band into a one-of-a-kind accessory using felted wool -- made from repurposed old sweaters that have been shrunk until the wool is thick and ravel-proof.

CRAFT MATERIALS:
	Old sweaters
	Scissors
	Button
	Embroidery needle
	Embroidery floss
	Elastic hair band
Time needed: Under 1 Hour

1. To felt the wool, wash the sweaters in hot water and dry them on high heat. Repeat, if necessary, so that the fabric's weave is tight enough to be cut without fraying.
2. Layer several felt circles and a button, then stitch them together with embroidery floss. Tie the floss tightly around the hair band to secure.
