What is boiled wool

Boiled wool, also called wool felt or fulled wool, is made by deliberately fulling knitted wool. This causes the fibres to lock tightly together, creating a sturdy, non-fraying fabric you can use without binding the edges. The blend of wool with viscose gives a soft finish and a lovely matte appearance without shine. Thanks to its heavy weight and firm drape, this fabric works beautifully for substantial winter garments. The fabric breathes well, which makes for comfortable wear despite the thickness.
