Joomchi
Joomchi is a very old wet felting technique form from Korea.
Traditional Korean use was created to make clothing, bags, military amor and more. Using only water, Hanji mulberry paper, and “eager” hands and time, breaks down the fibers in the paper and strengthens it. Several layers of paper are used to create a strong material. Joomchi has taken on other forms such as art. The process can take 90 minutes up to many hours to become like fabric and much stronger than typical paper.
I have found Joomchi to be very meditative during the process and very unpredictable in the end, which I love!
