Found this thread about felted bookweights while doing more research about them to work on my site. I am making bookweights for librarians and others who might need them and am thinking about making a links list for those who want to make them rather than have me make them for them! Felting! What a cool idea!

See my bookweights at http://www.heidihoerman.com/bookweight.html

Oooh, love the felted bookweight! Great idea!

I like the black furry bookweight, too (I bet it purrs, too)–but my feline bookweights tend to lie exactly atop the part I’m trying to read. They keep the book open nice and flat, though…

Cool. I need one of those. At least one.

I love the tip about threading an old sock through the tube before felting. A friend made a purse of alpaca and when she felted it, it turned into a solid alpaca mass.
