felting

I have been felting again and the familiar scent of soaked wool and dove soap fill my apartment. I have been felting for years and still the process seems somewhat mysterious to me. Small scales open as the PH of the wool is changed by the soap and with much rubbing they are fused together to create a new form, 

the shape my hands have given it.

The scarf shown above will be available in midnight navy, pewter, charcoal and dijon at Make in December.
