VERA Platform_2278 Wet felting "Wet felting is a traditional fiber art technique that transforms wool or other natural fibers into a dense, durable fabric by using moisture, heat, and agitation. The process involves layering raw wool, sprinkling it with warm, soapy water, and then repeatedly rolling, rubbing, or pressing the fibers together. As the wool\u2019s tiny scales catch and bond, it forms a tightly interlocked material known as felt. This versatile craft is used to create everything from clothing and accessories to decorative items and art pieces, and it offers a tactile, hands-on way to explore the unique properties of wool."
