 Nuno felting is a fabric felt technique. The name is derived from the Japanese word "nuno", which means cloth. the technique bonds loose fibres, usually wool into a sheer fabric such as silk gauze, creating a lightweight felt. You will learn how to make a nuno scarf, using wool and a piece of silk fabric. Previous experience in felting or good craft skills would be required.
