Felt So Lovely

Felt is, without a doubt, the hottest artisan medium around these days. There’s something about the lush colors, raw wool or silk fibers, and malleable shapes that make felt pieces both cozy and dramatic.

Artist Jenne Giles does felt brilliantly, and her Harlequin Feltworks scarves and shawls are collector’s items. You can find Harlequin Feltworks pieces at the gift shop of the San Francisco Museum of Craft and Design, select California boutiques, or at Giles’s Etsy store, where her Rose Collection scarves sell for $200. The Rose scarves envelop your neck and shoulders in luxuriously fine merino wool and tussah silk, hand-dyed in vivid shades.

The Hibiscus Rose (pictured) is a stunner.
