IMPRINTS OF NATURE

Wet felting is the process of combining layers of wool roving and/or wool yarns into one flat piece of felt fabric. This is what folks think about as the traditional or oldest felting method. Nuno felting is the process of felting wool roving and/or wool yarns onto another fabric.

Eco printing is essentially a direct contact printing method, drawing out pigments from plants to make interesting and often surprising marks on cellulose (cotton, linen) and protein (silk, wool) fibers, and not necessarily to dye yardage or yarns evenly. While traditional dye practices provide indispensable information and guidance for eco printing, not every color available in a plant reveals itself in a traditional immersion dye pot. Eco printing processes aim to use traditional dye plants in both old and new ways and to try plants not well known as dye sources.
