New Style of Handmade Nuno Felted Wool and Silk Scarves - The Lightning Series



This is my latest style of nuno felted scarf.  I call it the "Lightning" series of scarves because of the white linen fibers randomly scattered over the surface.  Each one of these is created individually through nuno felting techniques where wool is combined with a silk base.  Then I hand dye them to get the richest colors possible.  These particular scarves will eventually be going to Eclectics Gallery here in Kansas City.  If you live in the area, please stop by in a few weeks to see them in person.  The photos don't quite do them justice because you can't feel how super soft and lightweight they are.

A little bit of non-woolly felted jewelry for the vegans out there & those with wool allergies!


Introducing one of my latest little felted creations - a needle felted bunny made of 100% pure linen! It is completely plant based and derived from flax fibers. If you are a vegan or have wool allergies, this is just the right piece of non-woolly felt for you. Now you can still wear a bit of fuzzy bling and not worry about the wool.

I plan to needle felt more shapes with this bright white linen fiber. Next up are some hearts. I have not yet tried to dye the fibers for more color variety, but that is also in the future so we'll see what happens. Please check my Etsy shop for listings as I gradually add more non-woolly felted jewelry to my established line of felted wool.
