Feltis are 100% sheep's wool, most of which is sourced locally in Peru. The wool is washed and run through a carding machine, which brushes the wool fibers in the same direction to create roving. The roving wool is rolled into a ball and repeatedly poked with a fine barbed felting needle. Tiny scales on the wool fibers lock together with each poke and the wool becomes very dense, allowing the creation of a firm shape. Additional wool is added to create different shapes and details for each sculpture. Spectacled Bear Conservation's Felti program, started in 2010, involves the production of small, hand-crafted, woolen animals using a method called dry-needle felting. The program is a vital component of their work and results in a direct economic benefit for the communities we partner with on creating protected areas. Felti incentivizes conservation and builds trust and strong relationships between SBC and local people. Our Felti artisans are women from rural and indigenous communities. They become empowered by earning a fair and competitive wage, with many participants earning an income for the first time in their lives. By providing an alternative livelihood that isn't related to natural resource extraction, human pressure on prime spectacled bear habitat from activities like agriculture and poaching is decreased.
