This page shows silk habotai which is lightweight, shiny and ever so beautiful. These fabrics make really elegant nuno felted silk scarves or shawls. See the Gallery page for some examples.  Each piece of fabric is individual, so patterns will vary. Many of the fabrics have layers of color for a really beautiful look. 

Also available: 4.5 mm gauze -- see the nuno scarf kits page for the latest colors. Gauze is easiest to start with when you are learning to nuno felt. 

These pieces are unhemmed but may have a selvedge edge which you can remove if you wish.

I have really beautiful hand dyed18 micron merino rovings that match my fabrics in stock as well as matching silk hankies --  The new rovings are superfine and felt beautifully! I show the matching colors, but you may want contrasting colors -- just let me know.

Shawl sized pieces of habotai or chiffon 22 X 90" are $29 for a limited time. 

There are nuno felting instructions for sale at the bottom of this page. For a limited time instructions are free with a purchase and I will coach you through!

Prices of silk and wool are rising dramatically worldwide. I have increased my prices slightly. Cheers and thank you guys!

This was a recent class -- scarf colors from the left are tide pools, golden rust, patina, firey red, canyon, tide pools, firey red. Everyone added different colors to their scarf with various rovings and silk on top. It was fun! There are more photos on my blog. www.learnedlately.blogspot.com.

"Your hand-dyed silk arrived yesterday, and I can't wait to explore the nuances of colors already in them, to craft some nuno scarves, shawls and collars!  I love how deep and rich the colors are: every one of your scarves glows.

Love. Love. Love the latest batch of silk!  I can't wait to get down to the studio and work!

"You've got a quality operation going in terms of your fabric artistry and your go-the-extra-mile service.  You're an artist who understands an artist's needs and sensibilities and persnicketyness (is that even a word?) and I for one appreciate it very much.  And yes, your love of what you do shows up abundantly.  People like you are a delight to deal with.
Best Regards, Barbara"

"I have finished two scarves using nuno felting on your fabrics; and I am very pleased with the results.  I didn't seem to have any problems getting my fibers to migrate through your fabric, and you know I like to use a lot of fibers.  I think what I like most is that with your beautiful hand-dyed silks the scarves are fantastic on both sides.  It is like getting 2 scarves; the wool fibers on one side and your silk so textured and puckerly on the other side.  I'm so glad we met, and I knew right away that I loved your fabric."
