I have really been getting into this Halloween thing.  Everyday a new idea comes to me and I have to try it.  Today it is the cobweb felted ghost with a pictorial tutorial.

1.  Cut a piece of thin cheese cloth into about a 10 inch square.   Then lay it onto a bamboo sushi mat.  I used an off white roving and pulled it and sparingly placed it horizontally on the mat.  2.     Next place the roving vertically over the horizontal roving; it should be somewhat sparse because this is cobweb felting. 3.     Next sprinkle some soap on it and drizzle hot water over the entire surface.4.     Roll up the sushi mat and roll a few minutes and then turn the piece on the mat and roll again until you have a spidery looking fabric.  5.     Rinse in cold water and roll in towel until damp.6.     Take a piece of loose batting and form a ball.7.     Drape the cobweb fabric over the ball and tie securely to form the neck.8.     Use a dark roving like brown or black, needle felt the eye sockets in.9.     Tie a piece of yarn for the hanger and needle felt it into the top of the head. 10.  Fluff out the draping and you now have an adorable ghost.  I hope this is clear?  If you have any questions please ask.  :) Regards, Linda
