This product is Made in the USA in our Shop in Colfax, California.
Our wool felt is Made in the USA from wool grown in the USA. It is a blend of 35% wool and 65% rayon.
Why A Blend?
- Our goal was to have a blend that is close to the wool/cotton blend which has been in use for hundreds of years through out the world.
- The wool/cotton blend was favored over 100% wool or 100% cotton as the combination provided much better service
- The wool provided strength and warmth while the cotton added breathability and softness to touch.
- It was an ideal combination for all kinds of weather and purposes.
- Rayon and cotton are almost identical with cotton being a little bit softer and rayon being more silky or shinny on the surface.
How are Rayon and Cotton Different?
- Rayon is made from cellulose, a carbohydrate plant substance, derived from wood and wood pulp which is then made into fibers.
- Cotton is made of cellulose fibers from the cotton plant.
