Say hello to my classic and timeless pot underlay that consists of  handmade wool balls.
 
 I make the balls myself from carded wool,  hot water, soap, tea strainer and a lot of hand power. Sometimes I even have to supplement with a little needle felting.  I can calmly say that it requires patience and perseverance. In the end, I have 260  wool balls for a large pot underlay, 130 for a small one.  How many wool balls are then consumed depends on how big they became.  When the balls are ready, and have dried, I sew them together with an organic one  cotton thread. I use double thread to make it durable. 
 
 My classic underlay consists of carded wool  which I buy  and wool yarn that I card myself. The wool balls with it  the maroon color is naturally colored with  avocado and peel from yellow onion.
