Australian Merino Wool Felt Body 250g Western Weight Medium Crown Wide Brim Pre-stiffened Unblocked for Millinery Hat Makers

Soulhide

  • Materials: Wool

Seller's description

*IMPORTANT: READ DESCRIPTION FULLY PLEASE*

These are 95% merino wool / 5% angora rabbit fur unblocked bodies. They are great for your next hat projects or better yet, for distressing and for practicing the millinery craft. This is extra stock that I have and I am selling in small quantities. Merino wool is a higher quality than most wools and still provides a wonderful finish with the right techniques.

----Felt specifications------

- Colors available: Black, Dark Brown, Beige, and White [WHITE HAS A VERY SLIGHT YELLOW TO IT]

- 250g total weight (typically for western styles)

- Sheared finished (Roughly 60-70% pounced) I recommend no pouncing, but if you do start wool bodies at 320 grit+ NO AGGRESSIVE SANDING/POUNCING. Take your time with it and start with light passes. If white hard streaks start to show, you have sanded too much or you are using too fine of a grit and it causes rubbing burns.

- Pre-stiffened crown and brim, but brim has more stiffness

- 5.5in average medium crown height

- Crown size: Small, Medium, Large depending on availability

- Hat can provide up to 4 1/2 - 5in brim

Do not hesitate to contact before ordering a body. Wool felt bodies are sold as unfinished materials and are not a final product. The buyer assumes all responsibility for finishing processes, including but not limited to blocking, shaping, sanding, steaming, dye behavior, and final use. No guarantees are made regarding performance once the felt body is altered or processed. Thank you.
