This handmade nuno felted neckwarmer or snood is made from soft merino wool and silk featuring subtle botanical fern prints on purple and teal background.  Two pieces of silk sandwiched together with fine merino wool; one side is fine margilan silk and the other is ponge botanically printed silk. It is very soft and easy to wear around your neck. Pull it on to feel warm and snug, under a coat or worn indoors as an accessory. A beautiful unique gift.

Measurements: 64cm circumference x 42cm

I create pieces inspired by my local environment and love to play with combining colours. I choose the silk fabric and complementary wool colours first based on my inspiration.  In the process of felting, the wool fibres penetrate the silk fabric and hold it in place, so that it softly ruches and gathers as the wool fibres shrink and mesh together. The whole process takes several hours.  It has a lovely drape and feels super soft against the skin.

Fabric Care: it is best to wash this scarf by hand if you can, or use the handwash setting on your machine with nothing else in it. The process of making felt involves warm water, soap and agitation. This is exactly what your washing machine does. There is a risk of further shrinkage if you agitate it further in hot soapy water. Using natural soap also helps it to keep its lustre and drape.
It can be spun to extract most of the water, or rolled in a towel and pressed (stand on it) before hanging somewhere warm to dry completely. Finish off with a gentle steam iron to restore its shape and lustre.
