Welcome to Tash Wesp's Home Page


Handmade Felt
I begin with fine Merino wool, and incorporate silk and cotton to create a strong but light and drape able material. The wool is laid out in layers, each layer going in a different direction. Water and soap is added, and gentle agitation begins the felting process. During the felting process the wool fibers migrate through the fabric creating a one-of-a kind piece. I favor traditional millinery techniques to shape and style my hats and the felt needle to lay intricate design and detail. I finish with wet felting to bring the piece together.
