Bespoke Needlefelted Mantles

By Your Will, Manifested in Shadow

Drape yourself in the wild spirit of the North with a bespoke needle-felted fleece mantle, crafted from the sacred wool of rare breed sheep. Each piece is a tribute to the ancient ways, embodying the essence of vegetarian fur—sustainably sourced and cruelty-free. From raw fleece, I undertake a ritualistic process: separating locks with reverence, cleansing them through four purifying scours, wet-felting a resilient base, and meticulously binding each lock with needle and soul. The mantle is crowned with designs at the neckline, inspired by the runes and whispers of the earth. These timeless creations are not merely garments but heirlooms of nature, forged by hand and heart for those who walk the old paths.

Each mantle is a singular creation, woven through collaboration and bound by intention. Crafted individually by custom commission, these pieces are born of your vision and my craft. I offer a tapestry of rare breed sheep fleece, each strand a whisper of ancient herds, and can seek out many unique varieties to weave your vision into being. After we conspire over fleece and design, a price quote will be offered. Should our spirits align, a 20% non-refundable deposit will secure your place in the crafting queue, ensuring your mantle’s journey begins. To summon your custom creation, reach out to me through Heksedans Chat on my website, email, or Instagram DM. Together, we shall bring your vision to life, honoring the traditions of the old ways.
