"Felt Hat" |
Felt Simply put, felt is
matted wool. Wool becomes felt when it is subjected to moisture,
heat, and pressure. In fact, if domestic sheep were not shorn,
over time their wool would felt or "cot." Hot soapy water makes
the wool slippery, and causes tiny scales on the fiber to open
up. The scales prevent the fibers from backing up again after
they slide across each other; with agitation, the fibers get
hopelessly tangled together. When cooled, dried and compressed,
the scales close and lock the wool into the tough, durable
material we call felt.
The modern manufacture of felt is, as you might expect, a bit
more sophisticated than this description. The variety and volume
of wool used, the addition of other fibers, the
different "wetting" agents, the amounts of heat and pressure
applied are just some of the factors that affect the final
outcome. Ultra-thin or inches thick…velvety soft or hard to the
touch…felt is a material of incredible versatility and utility! |
