Why Fiber Artists Love Animal Classics
- Perfect for Realistic Animals: Each shade is chosen to mimic common fur and skin tones for wildlife, pets, and farm animals—great for felting, wool painting, or mixed media.
- Effortless Blending: Carded prep and balanced crimp allow for smooth color transitions and detailed shading, so every project looks more lifelike.
- Soft, Durable, and Versatile: Medium-fine micron count is gentle for wearable art, yet tough enough for sturdy sculptures or home décor.
- Ideal for Spinning & Weaving: Drafts easily for heathered, textured handspun or adds natural depth and texture to tapestries, wall hangings, and woven pieces.
- Trusted by Animal Lovers & Fiber Pros: The go-to palette for anyone looking to capture the warmth, movement, and personality of real creatures in fiber.
