Embroidery with Wool and Wool Thread
Wool has so many attributes to it that make it a wonderful material. On top of being flame resistant, long lasting, and not building up static because it is a tightly woven fabric, it makes it the perfect canvas for embroidery. When using wool it has the ability to crimp which basically means that the fibers bunch together and allows for insulation. There are many different kinds of wool such as Lambswool, Merino, Cashmere, Mohair, Angora Alpaca etc. The finer the wool the more crimps per inch and on the opposite end the rougher the wool is the fewer crimps...
