Nuno Felting

Nuno Felting means felting onto fabric – 'Nuno' is simply the Japanese word for fabric. It's a fantastic technique where wool fibres felt and shrink, causing the fabric to beautifully smock and change shape.


Fabrics with a slightly open weave are ideal for Nuno felting. Silk Chiffon is a particular favourite, creating stunning textures and drape when combined with wool. The results are truly eye-catching!


To get started with Nuno felting, you'll also need some basic wet felting equipment. Think of it as wet felting, but with the added dimension of fabric.
