I have been obsessed with roving for a few years now and have decided to take on wet felting! If you are feeling intimidated like I was, I suggest starting with a pouch design. It is pretty simple and easy to control, and you will have a defined end product (unlike just making felt).
I love buying local roving from alpaca farms (it is the softest material!) and I can usually find it pretty cheap. The other supplies you will need are listed in the tutorial and are also inexpensive.
Now I am selling them on my etsy shop (etsy.com/shop/EarthWellTravelled) as well as at craft fairs, and I am happy to share my art with the world!
I used this tutorial and i hope it helps you as well!
