How many felt layers are enough?<br />

This depends on whether you use<br />

latex padded slats or bare slats.<br />

With latex padded slats, stacking<br />

4 to 6 bed felt layers is recommended.<br />

With bare slats, it would<br />

be better with 8-10 bed felts.<br />

More can be added if needed.<br />

The top felt is the protection layer.<br />

It requires more care, especially<br />

when sleeping right on the felt<br />

with no sheet. Little woolen pilings<br />

begin to form wherever your<br />

body is directly moving/rubbing<br />

against the wool. The pilings can<br />

easily be picked off while sitting<br />

on them. It makes for good contemplation<br />

time.<br />

Multiple felts for layered mattress<br />

To produce a layered felt mattress,<br />

simply stack the felts on top<br />

of each other. Side lacing helps<br />

reduce possible slippage between<br />

felts, but is not absolutely needed.<br />

Some people prefer no lacing<br />

because of the ease of removing<br />

layers for travel, or for seasonal<br />

sunning and airing.
