Felting was a traditional craft and well known to ancient Bulgarians. In the past, there were fine craftsmen almost in every village in Bulgaria, who used it to make many different things – carpets, clothes, hats, shoes, bags, rugs, toys, and others. This ancient technique was preserved by handing it down from generation to generation. I was taught in it by mother, who learned it from my grandmother.

The earliest textile technology known to man is felt making, which appeared long before the loom. It is made without sewing or weaving and is a non-constructed fabric. It is so old that its origins are shrouded in mystery and a host of exciting legends.

Wool has very good vibrations and touching it has a soothing effect on people because no animals were killed, it's organic, and no chemical substances are used.

People across the world are now turning to wool thanks to the infinite benefits and features that the fibre provides, such as:

◉ Breathability - wool fibers can absorb large quantities of moisture vapor and then transfer it through evaporation into the air, keeping the skin fresher and drier for a longer time.
◉ Temperature regulation - Wool creates a lot of very small insulating air pockets to maintain temperature regulation through its natural crimp.
◉ Odor resistance - Wool's breathability helps to reduce sweat and odor, keeping the wearer's skin drier and cleaner.
◉ Softness and fineness - Today wool achieves incredibly high standards of fineness and softness, making it one of the most comfortable next to skin garments.
◉ Elasticity - Wool is naturally elastic and sheds creases, due to its unique structure and crimp. This helps to maintain the garment's shape and quality
◉ UV protection and fire resistance - Wool offers a natural protection from Ultraviolet light and is fire resistant and stores less static in comparison to other fibers.
◉ Versatility - Wool can be used in a wide variety of lightweight fabrics and fine knits, plus very innovative developments.
◉ Timeless elegance - Thanks to its elasticity, wool maintains an enduring drape and shape during the whole day, making it the ideal fiber for travelers and busy businessmen and women.

No synthetic fiber can guarantee the same benefits and comfort!
