Felted wool is a textile created by matting, condensing, and pressing wool fibers together. This process can be achieved through heat, moisture, and agitation, which causes the scales on the wool fibers to interlock. The result is a dense, durable fabric that is often used in crafts, clothing, and home decor. Felted wool is popular for its insulating properties and water resistance. It can be used in various applications, including hats, bags, and decorative items. Artisans often create unique designs by combining different colors and textures of wool, making each piece distinct.
