Handmade Felted and Knitted Merino Wool Sweater with Silk Fibers – Slow Fashion Textile Craft

This handmade sweater combines traditional felting and knitting techniques using natural luxury fibers. The body is hand-felted from very fine merino wool and silk fibers, creating a soft, lightweight fabric with subtle texture and sheen. The sleeves are hand knitted from fine merino wool yarn, adding flexibility and comfort.

By combining felting and knitting in one garment, the sweater balances structure, warmth, and movement. Merino wool provides breathability and temperature regulation, while silk fibers enhance the surface texture and light reflection.

Created slowly and with attention to materials, this piece highlights the beauty of natural fibers, traditional textile techniques, and handmade craftsmanship 💖
