Tapestry Wool PDF Print E-mail

Tapestry Wool is more than twice the thickness of crewel, and is used for screen panels, or large curtain borders, where the work is coarse, and a good deal of ground has to be covered. It is also used for bath blankets and carriage and sofa rugs. Tapestry wool is not yet made in all shades.

Fine crewels are used for delicately working small figures, doyleys, etc, but there is also a difficulty about obtaining these in all shades, as there is not much demand for them at present.
