The art of felting: the first step begins with gathering some of the world’s finest sheep’s wool from New Zealand. Making felted wool is an ages-old, time-consuming process of bonding fabric with fiber. The artisans scrub, rub, roll and rinse the wool again and again with soapy water. Once the wool is bound into a sheet and the desired thickness is complete, the felt is laid out to dry. Then, the felt wool is cut and re-worked into many complex shapes and designs. This takes a well-trained, talented artisan and is a true labor of love.
