HOW TO MAKE NUNO FELT 3: ADDING A WOOL DESIGN ON FABRIC #nunofelt #felt#wetfelting

When textile artists talk about Nuno Felt, it is sometimes in reference to using wool or other fibre to decorate a lightweight open fabric such as silk or muslin. Our task is to push the wool fibres together and at the same time, pushing the fibres through the weave of the fabric. You only need a very small amount of wool. This is where wool comes into its own best qualities of being great for all temperatures. In this way nuno felt can be a joy to wear in a very hot climate. The qualities of wool are such that it is cool as well as warm to wear. Even the smallest amount of wool such as this will add to the comfort of a nuno felt item. A nuno scarf decorated like this will be featherweight but amazingly warm at the same time.
