One of the main reasons why felt has stood the test of time (literally, it was first used in footwear about a couple of thousand years ago) is that it is super tactile and soft, but some craft felt projects call for something a bit more rigid, something with additional structure to make an impact. 

There are some crafting projects that demand the thickness, feel and durability of a top quality all wool felt. Most craft felts have some wool content but it is usually around 30% with the other 70% being a synthetic fibre. Blended felts are great, they work well for most felt crafting projects but if you’re making something that you want to really last, like seasonal decorations to keep or a doorstop, you might consider making them from the REAL THING, 100% wool felt.
