How to Make and Eco-Print a Nuno Felt Scarf (Aannsha Jones creates)

- Опубліковано 23 лип 2024
- "How to Make and Eco-Print a Nuno Felt Scarf" shows how to make a soft, fine fabric out of wool and silk using the wet-felting technique, and then eco-print and eco-dye it with leaves and petals. You will see how to lay out the wool rovings onto the silk chiffon so that when felted you have a lightweight scarf that has areas of see-through chiffon as part of the fabric. After that you learn how to add natural prints and delicate colour to the details already embedded in the felting process, by using rose leaves and petals. I have included materials used and handy affiliate links for the complete project for you below.

I used geranium leaves for the first time in this eco-printing process, but these did not print, although they acted as a resist creating a non-coloured area.

If you'd like to learn to make and nuno felt scarf, and eco print it, but aren't sure which materials to use, I have put a list of everything you need in the video description. And I've also added affiliate links for your convenience. 😀
Have you done anything that looked more universal? Ie: 2 sided maybe or something larger that when flipped inside out have different colors.
Umm you see how military have a green, brownish tones then if in winter can change to the lighter white with accent blownish tones.
My ex was military and could get away with most anything mid Eastern looking but.. You know what a Ghillie suit is?
It's what snipers wear.. or as little as tossing a mesh net over their head.
I thought of a scarf that could be worn with the greens then again in winter. Both able to be tossed over the head to blend in the snowy terrain. Could be sections of an open webbing to view through until needed to target. Maybe silk in ripped pieces or ?? Then over the holes put webbing/mesh .. then wool to meld it together as 1.flip to change colors of wool. The mesh also helps cool in summer yet block wind in winter if using it over head or ??
Make sense? It can be creative..
Thank you for adding beauty and love to our world.
I appreciate that, dodieheisey, thank you
All of your videos are beautiful . Gracias por la generosidad
begoña schulze Gracias!
Really has a lovely luster and beautifully done...a well presented tutorial
Wow thank you Isabella! Silk is an amazing addition to felt when you make it, as this gives the lustre to wool which in itself is matt.
truely beautiful !! i am looking forwards to viewing more of your videos. thank you for the inspiration. ♡

Bello,bello!
Thank you!
Maravilhoso😍
Thanks!
Nice video
Thank you!
I really enjoyed making this scarf. I am thinking of making something similar only leaving the bundle to simmer longer for more definite prints. What do you think? Or would you rather see me make something else?
I love this process! I do hope you tell us how to make the iron water. Thanks!
Either use iron sulphate and mix per instructions with water. Or get an empty glass jar, fill it with 50:50 water:vinegar and add rusty nails.
Lovely quick question. Iron Water? How did you get that. If something you mixed into water what n how much per quart. What could be a good substitute. I'm on the USA in a fairly large city in the south. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the wonderful video… my question is mordanting the fabric is not required??
On felt or wool the vinegar is sufficient.
So beautiful, I want to make a felted scarf. I have silk chiffon fabric, would that work?
Oh yes silk chiffon will be excellent!
how long will the print last? I feel it will fade away after couple of washes. Have you experimented it? Thanks
Malki Erandi, Hi. This depends on lots of factors including: the strength of the print, what plant material you have used, the type of laundry detergent used, temperature of wash, how often you wash the item and even the amount of strong sunlight it's exposed to. I wouldn't be washing a scarf often and usually scarves are worn when the sun is less intense. With eco-printing, a part of the fun is in experimenting. I have.found even in sunny Australia using regular washes, that tee shirts I've printed last a long time. And when they fade I simply re-print!
Thank you for this video and the great idea for natural dying ;-) You talked abou dipping the leaves and pétales into vinigar but what was the light Brown liquid you dipped in the flower ?? Thanks again I will experiment that for sure . I love hydrangea and will try with that at fall time ;-) TY ! Great spring time ;-)
Manon Baril Hi and thank you for letting me know that this has inspired you! The brown liquid is rust water which gives the prints a darker / more defined look and acts as a mordant.
OK TY !! But what if I don't have rust water . . would tea do ?? Or something else to replace the rust water with ?? Thanks again ;-)
Hi Manon, You can make iron water easily enough. Just throw a few rusty nails or iron into a glass jar that has 1 part cleaning vinegar to 2 parts water and leave covered for a couple of weeks. When the solution has turned orangy-brown it is ready to use. However, if you don't want to do that, give tea a go! It does contain tannin which is a natural plant mordant and is used to pre-treat vegetable materials (cotton) before mordanating with aluminium potassium sulfate.
I haven't used tea myself, but do try it. As with any dyeing, or eco-printing, it is good practice to write your results in a journal so you can repeat the process if you like it. Printing with plants often gives mixed results, because the leaves will contain different amounts of colour depending on time of year, whether it has rained before collecting the leaves, and even the water that you use, as different areas have varying amounts of minerals in the water, which can affect the results.
Do feel free to share your results here so we can all benefit from the wisdom of your experiment, we'd love to hear from you again! :)
Aannsha Jones thanks alain. I am on the process of finalizing a new Craft room 11’x19’ bigger then the prvious one 9’x10’. I just bought many Colors of wool, hankies, Silk and different other textures can t wait to work on this and create nice things. I will keep you posted. Enjoy the summer. ;-)
Oh that sounds like a wonderful creative space! Now I live on a boat, I have had to downsize what I can make drastically! I will have to live vicariously through your creations. Do keep me posted :)
Hello! I know this is an older video but I have a question, on the finished nuno scarf, can you needle felt extra designs as well if you want more precision? Great video, very inspiring! :)
Thank you. You could try that. You would need to be aware not to damage the fine thin chiffon or other gauze material you are using.
@@AannshaJones Thank you so much!
hi, how I get the iron water?
Either use iron sulphate and mix per instructions with water. Or get an empty glass jar, fill it with 50:50 water:vinegar and add rusty nails.
Madam I really enjoyed eco print. I'm in kerala..I want to eco print costumes...may I help u.....please replay...how many rupee this work
Thank you and I wish you success with your eco printing.
I did the same thing but chiffon falls off what should i doo
I'm not sure what you mean by the chiffon falls off... falls off what?
kindly suggest me the plants to get green color please...
Mahjabeen Iqbal Experiment with lots of plants! But you could try spinach leaves or red onion skins or nettle leaves. Keep a note of the leaves or flowers and mordant you use do you can repeat any results you like.
Aannsha Jones I have tried spinach but I get light green color rather I want dark color... and yes I love the color of onion I tried it already.... will u please suggest me something else???
Hi, I hear your enthusiasm! I'm actually away on holiday for a few days so if you don't mind waiting I'll reply in more detail when I get home. Thank you. ☺
Hi again! Have you tried Dahlia leaves? Also, stone fruit leaves i.e. plum, apricot, peach etc., gives green, although I think you would probably need to use mordants (like alum and also iron). Ivy leaves will give green too. I would suggest a couple of books on plant dyes - and Jenny Dean or Sasha Duerr do have books on the subject that are worth reading.
Aannsha Jones thank u... I will read these books... if I want to know something else then i will contact u again...
