pleas note that I have never really felted anything so I can't say for shore, but I think it has to be 100% wool or close, mohair felts, but we all know silk dose not, though I could be wrong and it could all felt nicely. you could all ways felt a little swach and find out. 3nodding

If it's got at least half wool/mohair, it'll probably felt, but because of the silk content don't expect to see stitch definition completely dissapear, I would think.

It will felt slightly... the fabric will get firmer and pull together a bit more, but it won't completely felt like 100% wool does.
