Make a felt scarf or felt wrap

Nuno and Cobweb felt techniques can be applied to make yourself a beautiful scarf or wrap, I have plenty of materials to make something interesting and unusual.

Nuno Felt

Nuno felt is a procedure of integrating felt with a fabric which makes it strong enough to be used as a sheer lightweight fabric in its own right.

Cobweb Felt

As its name suggests, cobweb felt is a very fine, almost gauzy felt which can be used for sheer scarves, wall hangings and artwork.

Felt Flowers

Any flowers can be made either to adorn a bag, a scarf or as jewellery or just on their own!.our imagination is the only limit!
