Do you use plastics such as thin kitchen flooring underlayment for resists and bubble wrap for ‘friction’ in wet felting? Are you interested in reducing your reliance on these fossil-fuel-based materials? Feltmaker and tutor Vanda Sousa of ‘Going the Dodo Way’ shared an interesting blog post in 2023, exploring alternatives to plastic in wet felting.
Her post includes several ideas originally shared in “Filzen ohne Plastik” by Corinna Nitschmann from an issue of the German-language felting magazine FiltzFun, n. 73.
