You may know that for many years Iâve had a list of suppliers for wool and wet felting equipment that I offer in my courses and as a download on my website. Itâs based on my own experience buying wool online, as well as on recommendations from students and followers.

This week Iâm answering the question: âHow do I make thin felt from 2 layers of wool without getting holes in my felt?â

- You used bubble wrap to roll a nuno felted piece and it left circular marks on your project.
- You fulled a cobweb scarf in the washing machine and it came out unrecognizable.

Years ago, I wrote a couple of blog posts about prefelts, but there are many details I didnât mention back then. Since I still get a lot of questions about the topic, I thought it would make sense to write a new, more complete and up to date series.
This first part caters to new felt makers, who I ...
When we start a new hobby, the natural tendency is to imitate someone elseâs style. And thereâs no reason to feel bad about it. We all do it. I did it too.
