We create these batts in-house using top shelf fibers like merino, angora, alpaca, and many more. These give you soft and realistic feel with needle feltability in mind. Part of the beauty of an animal's coat is the natural variation in the colors and textures. For that reason, a plain dyed single roving does not have the dimension needed to replicate an animal. Also, the addition of finer fibers to these batts makes a finer top coat for your work. Pelts are meant to be used in a flat\/pelt needle felting application. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-05-24T19:09:41-04:00","sort_order":"alpha-asc","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Pelts and Skin Tones"}],"published_scope":"global"}]

Skin tones are tough to come by. When I dye roving for skin tones it is often too flat, too warm, or too cool. I have found that by blending similar tones and values together I get a more dynamic, alive, and realistic color.
These house carded roving bundles are a blend of various wools that lend themselves to needle felting small features. Each bundle is carded several times to make the colors blend seamlessly.
Fair - A light skin tone with a soft balance of pink, peach, and tan. My favorite for Santa and gnomes.
