crewel wool
Crewel wool is a type of embroidery thread made from wool fibers. It is typically thicker than standard embroidery floss, which allows for bold and textured stitching. Crewel wool is often used in crewelwork, a form of decorative embroidery that features intricate designs and patterns.
This wool is usually dyed in a variety of colors, making it versatile for different projects. Crewel wool can be used on various fabrics, such as linen or cotton, and is popular for creating detailed images in home decor items like cushions and wall hangings.
