Nuno Felting Scarf Kits

Each kit typically includes silk gauze or fabric, merino wool roving, and detailed instructions. Some kits also feature embellishments, such as silk fibres or botanical-inspired elements, to personalise your scarf. Everything is selected to complement the felting process.

Yes, these kits are beginner-friendly and include step-by-step guidance. If you’ve never felted before, a kit is a great way to learn without needing to source individual materials. It’s an easy, low-pressure way to start creating.

Most scarves can be completed in a few hours, depending on your pace and setup. The process involves laying out your design, wetting the fibres, and felting through agitation and rolling. It's an enjoyable project that can fit into a weekend afternoon.

No specialised tools are required. You’ll need basic household items like a bamboo mat or towel, soap, warm water, and some plastic wrap. Each kit outlines what’s needed and offers alternatives if you’re just starting out.

Most kits create a finished scarf approximately 150–180cm long, though this can vary slightly depending on the amount of shrinkage during felting. The instructions usually offer tips to control or adjust the final size.

Yes, we prioritise ethically sourced and sustainable fibres, including mulesing-free merino and natural silk. Our kits reflect Thread Collective’s commitment to mindful, eco-conscious crafting.

While many kits come in pre-coordinated colours, you can absolutely add natural or acid dyes to your fibres before felting. We also stock Natural Dye Kits if you want to personalise your palette.

Yes, the combination of fine merino wool and silk makes for a soft, lightweight scarf that’s comfortable to wear. The felting process integrates the fibres without making them stiff or itchy.

With adult supervision, older kids and teens can definitely enjoy nuno felting. The kits also work well for small group workshops or creative get-togethers, as the process is tactile and easy to learn with shared guidance.

Handwash your scarf gently in cool water with mild soap. Avoid wringing or stretching, and lay flat to dry. This keeps the fibres intact and preserves the unique texture you’ve created through felting.
