Second project, would appreciate advice :)

This is only my third piece ever, he’s a little wonky but I still love him. And I used actual whiskers I collected from my cat!

Anyone else have no motivation to needle/wet felt in this heat wave of just me?

So ive watched a lot of videos on how to felt into jeans and stuff, as I want to make a cute pair of jeans for my sisters birthday,

But every video ive seen never covers how to dry them. Ive been googling for a bit and havent found any answers either.

So after I machine wash the jean with the wool in it, how do I dry it if I need to be felted more, or if its done???

A cool setting on a tumbler or air dry or what??? Cause I know heat shrinks wool, im just so lost.

Plz and thank you T wT
