This beautiful orange silk scarf has been odorned with wool in a process called Nuno felting.  It is a fabric felting technique developed by Polly Stirling, a fiber artist from New South Wales, Australia, around 1992.

The name is derived from the Japanese word "nuno" meaning cloth.The 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.

The nuno felting process is particularly suitable for creating lightweight fabrics used to make clothing. The use of silk or other stable fabric in the felt creates fabric that will not stretch out of shape. 

Enjoy being wrapped up in pure beauty, style and elegance!
