When lining a cookie sheet or baking pan, which side helps prevent food from sticking to the foil? I always get stumped by this.
any pure animal fiber like wool, alpaca will feltjust make sure that it doesnt say superwash or it wont felt at all.
No, most animal fibers will felt, like, alpaca, mohair ectsome will felt more than othersyou have to test each one to see how it will felt with a knitted swatchGood Luck with your felting projKitt
They do all in South America but it is easy to find llama and alpaca fibers than sheep wool and yes those fibers felt aswell lol
Llama, alpaca, vicuna (good luck on that one, aside from the fact that you need a license to bring it back into the US), and non-superwash sheep's wool will all feltHowever, have her check with US Customs first before trying to bring fleece or yarns back in, just to be sure that she can do it easilyThere are some lovely handspun Peruvian yarns that you may not want to felt, but just knit with.
Neither side is non-stickThere is a new foil product out that is specifically non-stick, but regular foil used with either side up is NOT non-stickAnd to clear up additional confusion, there is no right side to foil, eitherOne side is shiny and the other side is dull simply because two sheets are made at the same time and the outer sides are shiny due to exposure to the rollers and the inner sides are dull.
