Woolen felted scarf

Woolen felted scarf

Hand-felted scarf is made with wet felting technique, produced from high-quality black, gray, and white wool, combined to give a sense of colours bleeding into each other. A technique was used to produce delicate, lightweight, and airy texture, which ensures a soft, breathable texture, while maintaining durability and structural integrity.

The scarf was made by hand, with the help of a rubber mat on which she created the scarf, and a felting machine, which shortened the process time.

Scarves are Anja Musek's best-selling products, and it takes her about two days to make one. She makes them to order and on demand, and has a few made in advance. She makes between 5 and 10 a month.

Anja Musek says that her medium of expression is wool, and that she finds inspiration mainly in nature. Škofja Loka was also known for hatmaking, where the knowledge of wet felting was used by hatters to make the bases for their hats.
