Felting and Blocking the Sinsation Scarf

This evening I put the Sinsation scarf into the washing machine to felt it. Took it out of the dryer and couldn't even bear to look at it - mind you, everything I read online said it would be this way, but still. It was a wadded mess inside the lingerie bag. I put that into the dryer and took it out while still damp.

I think it's all good. It's a little narrower than I expected, so I pulled on it to make it a bit wider again and I'm blocking it that way. The texture seems like the felted scarves I've seen in the yarn stores, so I have hope.

Keep your fingers crossed...
