Making notes on laptop sleeve
G looked at my felt'd purse with slight amusement when I was finishing it last week, I offered to make him one :) That made him happy. Which brings me here - making notes here for a felt'd laptop sleeve. Based on my previous (one time!) experience using cascade pastaza and 220
13.5 x 8.5 -> 11x 6.75
13.5 x 13.5 -> 11x 11
so this means ... it shrunk ~12.5% width wise and 20% height wise (on mine) and about 18% all around on GD's.
So in order to make a laptop sleeve for 14" x 9.5" x 1" .. with the sleeve open on the short side. I should make a pocket about 17" x 11" x 1.5". I think Patons may be a better choice, less fuzzy/fussy, than Pastaza. Good thing fulling is forgiving, this sort of arithmetic may prove to be challenging.
