Kathy began her journey into Wet Felting in 2012 after taking a class and making two scarves. She has become a master at the technique in a very short time.
The examples of her projects pretty much speak for themselves. She quite often starts with a silk or gauze base, adding very thin layers of wool roving, and then a soapy water, she uses Dawn original, and then she rolls, and rolls, and rolls, often 12 to 1500 times per scarf.
