Felting

Prior to felting the wool is beaten with flexible wooden sticks. It is beaten along the line of the fiber and aids in the removal of dirt from between the fibers. The result is a coarser wool than one gets from carding. The mother felt is rolled out onto the field. This is an old felt used as a base for the new felt The beaten wool is now placed on the mother felt in such a way as to have the fibers relatively parallel. The best wool is laid out first and denotes the right side of the new felt.
