Carded Wool – The Heart of Handmade Waldorf Dolls

What is Carded Wool?
Carded wool is a natural, soft, and fluffy wool fiber that has been cleaned, combed, and aligned to remove tangles while maintaining its airy structure. It is an essential material in Waldorf doll-making, providing the perfect stuffing for soft, huggable dolls.

Why Use Carded Wool for Doll-Making?

  • 100% Natural & Sustainable – Made from pure sheep’s wool, it is biodegradable, renewable, and eco-friendly.
  • Warm & Breathable – Wool retains warmth, giving handmade dolls a comforting, lifelike feel.
  • Resilient & Shape-Retaining – Unlike synthetic fillings, carded wool holds its form well over time, making dolls durable and long-lasting.
  • Naturally Antibacterial & Moisture-Wicking – Wool resists dust mites and absorbs moisture without feeling damp, keeping dolls fresh and hygienic.

Uses in Waldorf Dolls

  • Stuffing for doll heads and bodies – Provides a firm yet soft structure for traditional Waldorf dolls.
  • Needle Felting for Sculpted Features – Can be shaped into defined facial features, giving dolls expressive and gentle expressions.
  • Layering for Softness & Form – Used in layers to create a natural, organic shape with a smooth finish.

Care Instructions

  • Do not wash raw carded wool. If the doll needs cleaning, spot-clean the outer fabric gently.
  • Keep away from moths. Store unused wool in a sealed container with natural moth repellents like lavender or cedar.
  • Fluffing & Reshaping: Over time, wool can compress slightly—gently massaging the doll will restore its shape.

Why Choose High-Quality Carded Wool?

The quality of carded wool affects the final look and feel of a handmade doll. Using premium, chemical-free wool ensures that your Waldorf dolls remain soft, safe, and naturally beautiful for years to come.

Whether you are creating a traditional Waldorf doll or experimenting with different natural fiber arts, carded wool is the perfect foundation for a warm, cuddly, and heirloom-quality creation.
