Liz makes such beautiful scarves and shawls, and we were so happy to get this new batch!
The Nuno technique bonds loose fibre, usually wool, into a sheer fabric such as silk gauze, creating a lightweight felt. The fibres can completely cover the background fabric, or they may be used as a decorative design that allows the backing fabric to show. Nuno felting often incorporates several layers of loose fibres combined to build up colour, texture, and/or design elements in the finished fabric. Here, Liz uses merino wool and silk gauze. This shawl is about 14" wide and 57" long.
