You can make your own sherpa-like or fleece-like felt in a wonderful natural
fiber-blend! With this easy and fun technique, you can create the perfect texture
and give ordinary crafts and collectibles a unique and luxurious look!
Using cold to warm water, wet National Nonwovens' WoolFelt® completely in a sink or basin. Do not rub or agitate. Wet each color separately (some dye may be released into the water - this is normal).
Squeeze by hand to remove as much water as possible. Avoid wringing as it may stretch the material.
Place in a standard tumble clothes dryer on regular or hot setting until WoolFelt® is nearly dry (approximately 35 minutes). Do not over dry. Dry light colors separately from darker colors. Colors may change slightly during drying process ( I usually put a small old towel in too) Tip: if excess dye remains in dryer, take out WoolFelt®, place old wet towel in dryer, and finish dryer cycle to remove remaining dye.
Lay flat to dry completely, smoothing fabric gently by hand. Large wrinkles may be removed by using a light steam iron held just above the surface of the fabric. Return felt to its original form by pressing with a steam iron.
To avoid future shrinkage upon completion, dry cleaning is recommended. WoolFelt® should be washed only once to create the fleece-like effect.
Price is for a cut of 45x50cm.
