Wool Felt

BASIC SUPPLIES

  • National Nonwoven’s WoolFelt®
  • Clothes Dryer
  • Iron
    1. Soak National Nonwoven’s WoolFelt® completely in a sink or basin. Do not rub or agitate. Wash each color separately, as some dye will be released into the water.

    2. Squeeze by hand to remove as much water as possible. Avoid wringing as it may stretch the material.

    3. Place in a standard clothes dryer on regular setting until WoolFelt® is nearly dry (approximately 20-30 minutes). Do not over dry. Dry light colors separately from dark colors. Colors may change slightly during the drying process, but will return to their original shade once completely dry. Lay flat to dry completely, smoothing fabric gently by hand.
    • Large wrinkles may be removed by using a light steam iron held just above the surface of the fabric. All wrinkles and puckering can be removed by pressing with a steam iron.

    • Results may vary. Because WoolFelt® contains 20% - 35% wool, some shrinkage will occur during this process. Across a 36” wide swatch, there may be a loss of 2-4 inches. In length, the fabric may loose 3-5 inches per yard. To avoid future shrinkage upon completion, dry cleaning is recommended. WoolFelt® should be washed only once to create the fleece-like effect.
