DESCRIPTION:
My felted wrist cuffs are artistically made using natural, undyed, unbleached sheep wool. This wool has been shorn for the sheep's pleasure and yours as they are alive and well roaming the fields on their small family farms.
These slip on wrist cuffs feature beautiful crimpy locks which are super soft & fluffy. A perfect accent to your wardrobe!
THE PROCESS:
Felting is a labor of love with each piece being designed & artfully crafted entirely by hand. The end result is undeniably lovely and because of the hand made nature, you can be assured that no two scarves will ever be the same. In fact, they will assuredly be "imperfectly perfect" with all of the characteristics of the natural wool emerging in each carefully designed piece. That, to me, is what makes each scarf/collar such a beautiful art piece for you to both use and enjoy!
FIELD GRASS ETC:
* Prior to the actual felting process, I spend a great deal of time removing bits of bedding and vegetable matter from each fleece. These are real sheep living their best life out in their fields. Some sheep will have virtually no vegatative matter, while others will be chuck full! Therefore, please expect to find some remaining vegetable matter such as hay, straw, grain, tiny twigs etc. in your felted art piece. These bits shows up more evidently in light & dark colored fleeces. I do my best to use only the choicest, premium locks for garments that will have the least amount of field grass as possible. If you are concerned or have special needs, please feel free to send me a message:)
SHEDDING:
* My felted fleeces are entirely hand made, with the wool locks held into place by the process of felting. They respond to use much differently than a leather backed, tanned hide. Each fleece has its own characteristics & some will shed more than others. If you have a particular use in mind, feel free to contact me so I can do my best to assist you in selecting the most suitable fleece for your needs.
CLEANSING:
* My felted fleeces are "washed" during the design process and once completed, I hand wash each fleece thoroughly using an all natural plant based cleanser which is safe for the environment and restores the natural pH of the wool. They are then set out under the sun to dry.
CARE AND MAINTANENCE:
* Because the structure of wool fiber, it is naturally dirt and stain resistant. It is best to gently shake (outdoors) and finger fluff to maintain loft. If necessary, your felted piece can be hand washed (or spot cleaned) in cold water with a gentle wool cleanser like Unicorn or white vinegar. The excess water can be gently squeezed out or spun in your washing machine on the gentlest cycle, then set flat to air dry. Combing or vacuuming is never recommended.
