Prefelt is an already partially felted wool base designed to make it easier and faster to make felt projects. Unlike staple carded wool, it has a compact but still workable structure that allows overlapping layers before completing the felting. Thanks to its thin ribbon cut, it allows for highly precise graphic designs and decorations.

Wool fiber, particularly merino fiber, is prized for its natural structure composed of keratin, an elastic and tough protein that gives the fiber unique characteristics:

Our merino wool is mulesing-free, meaning it comes from farms that do not practice mulesing, a surgical procedure used in some parts of the world to prevent parasitic infestations in sheep. The choice to use wool from supply chains that exclude this practice reflects our commitment to animal welfare and more responsible farm management.
The dyes used for our products meet the requirements of the OEKO-TEX standard, which guarantees the control and limitation of substances potentially harmful to human health and the environment.
The dyeing of fibers is carried out in our dyehouse in Italy, in compliance with current European regulations on chemical substances and environmental safety, including the REACH Regulation (EC No. 1907/2006), which governs the registration, evaluation, authorization and restriction of chemical substances.
Operating within the European Union also entails compliance with additional provisions on environmental protection and textile product safety, such as the CLP Regulation (EC No. 1272/2008), relating to the classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures. This regulatory framework ensures that dyeing processes are conducted according to high standards of safety, traceability and environmental responsibility, offering a reliable product for both the end user and the environment.
Our extra fine merino wool tops are perfect for l´needle felting and forwater felting.
Since colors may vary depending on your monitor or device settings, we recommend purchasing our Color Card to check the shades in person before placing your final order. Want to check the quality of the material? Choose our Sample Box.
ATTENTION: all our colors generally have high light and wash fastness. However, fluorescent colors (80's collection), in addition to having lower light resistance, may also experience significant color loss when exposed to alkaline or particularly aggressive soaps, as well as during prolonged processing or washing. This phenomenon can also occur, to varying degrees, with dark and particularly bright colors. For materials dyed in these shades, we always recommend performing a preliminary processing and washing test on a small sample before completing your final project. This precaution is essential, especially when colored materials are combined with raw or light-colored fibers.
Finally, to best preserve colors, we recommend not drying finished items in direct sunlight, but in a shaded location.
