Felt

Felt balls and beyond - felt stars, felt cords...

For centuries, people have been felting wool to make felt clothing, shoes, tents and jewellery. Fabrics from the last centuries have been found during excavations and show how sustainable and strong a felted fabric can be. 

Felt not only brings colors to life, also brings joy to everyday life. When learning colours with children, practising counting for pre-school children, also when decorating and improving your own home or making jewellery. Felt products from Schnuffelinis are durable, versatile and colourful.

Felting wool is an ecologically very degradable material and is made from sharp wool. In the process of fulling (wet felting), the felting wool is kneaded with soapy water, worked and pressed (rolled). The fine wool fibre scales are joined together by this process and the fibres are interlinked, which is also called felting.

In needle felting (dry felting), the wool is repeatedly pierced with felting needles that have barbs all around the needle so that the fibres bind together. 

Our wool can be used for both dry and wet felting. 

Schnuffelinis wool comes from New Zealand and is produced mulesing free. 

Mulesing free wool production ensures that sheep are not subjected to a cruel practice of cutting away the skin around the tail without painkillers or anaesthesia to prevent parasites from settling there.

Furthermore, our wool is AZO free and dyed without toxic chemicals, solvents, petroleum or bleach.

    Beautiful things, felted with love! That's what SCHNUFFELINIS® stands for.

    When it comes to our pets, many cat owners are very concerned that the materials for the toys are free of harmful substances, sustainable and plastic-free. It has to be something special, lovingly felted and washable.

    This way, pets are happy about the excitement of play, good-smelling toys and as a cat owner you have the good feeling of having found something nice for your darling.

    Pets at home accessories should not only be functional but also pleasing to the eye, which is why the details are lovingly felted by hand and give the bees, fish and balls a design-loving touch.

    The natural smell of felt encourages many older cats to play, hunt and catch again. Try the fish with ribbon, the spirals in various colours or the bees that can be carried around the house as felt hives on their wings. Sustainable products from a family business in Stuttgart. We make possible what is hardly available anymore, pet toys made of 100% felt wool, 
    biodegradable plus safe for pets, you can wash the felt (handwash) so you can re-use its time and time again!
