How to felt a sleeveless vest

Handmade Merino Felt Scarves - A Crowdfunding Campaign on Kickstarter



What is so unique about my hand crafted merino felted fabrics.

The process

This unique textile is non woven.
Fine layers of Merino wool tops, or rovings are laid layer upon layer to build the design.
Felting of wool is a very natural process.
The result is a unique textile, that is breathable, soft, warm, translucent like old vintage lace and yet strong enough to endure daily wear.


works of art emerge from the process.
See the process in a demonstration video  



Images bellow of the Sleeveless vest, Waistcoat as seen in the demonstration video.

A unique sleeveless vest,
You can wear it from both sides.
It has no seams,
so wear it with the shocking pink outside one day
and then the next, wear it with the soft candyfloss pinks, outside.
2 vests in 1.... for the price of 1
