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.
