Each ball needed to be tied inside pantyhose so it would stay together in the washing machine. These balls are about the size of a softball, so they will end up about the size of a baseball. The hose are knee-hi's from the drugstore (69c per pair)—they won't be re-used, so I got the cheapest ones I could find. The balls are actually more fluffy before the washing, but these have been washed already.
I threw them in a regular load of towels, hot wash / cold rinse. Then into the dryer with the towels. I knew I had a good felt because the hose had to be peeled off the ball.
Static-free laundry, here we come. It's important to remember to clean the lint trap when using the balls, to avoid a fire hazard.
