📷 Pictures of wool in felting technique

Felting wool was popular many centuries ago, but today this technique is very common among needlewomen. In recent years, often meet all kinds of products and paintings made in the technique of felting.

Modern felting is not only rich in colors, but also original stories. Recently, she was again at the exhibition of folk crafts and photographed a lot of interesting works. Look at these lovely daisies, they look alive.

All the paintings were under glass. Because wool does not like even the slightest breath of wind, when any picture can lose the original form.

According to one version it is believed that this kind of needlework came to us together with the Mongol-Tatar yoke. Then mainly made cloth and felt used in the economy.

In such boots in winter will not only warm and comfortable, but also very stylish :-)

In ancient times, the wool was warmed at home, and the kids preferred to play with felted toys, which could hide secrets. I liked these miniature shoes for Souvenirs or herbs.

Today, this technique produces not only clothes, paintings, toys, but also interior items, products acquire an artistic form and have a modern name — felting.

The exhibition presented paintings in the technique of dry felting, which were made by means of a thin needle, which has a peculiar shape resembling the capital Latin letters L and C.

Due to such adaptations wool fibres are easily mixed up and become similar to clay. From it masters have done any jewelry, created landscapes and such poppy meadow.

Or entire humorous scenes. Original, isn't it?
