Yes, you are the only one. Obviously that feeling of loneliness and isolation led to you posting as amother. Do you need a hug?

Alas, probably not, because the fibers have broken into pieces too short to be spun together. That's what lint is, in fact--tiny fibers that have broken off the fabric. Since what you'd have would be a mixture of many different kinds of fibers, it may not even be possible to felt them together the way pure wool can be felted.


Sounds like a great way to end up with a shatnez problem!

I once saw in a Ripley's Belive it or not book about a woman who makes art out of dryer lint.

How 'bout attaching a small attractive magnetic box of the type intended for school lockers to the washer or dryer.

or DIY w/ this (or any plastic cup or) pencil holder, attaching to appliance with magnets or hook/loop material (velcro) that you glue or stick on. I like to use old magnetic business cards or candle lighting time magnets (cut to correct size) for projects. You could even attach to a wall with stick-on hook/loop material.
