Felt exempt?

[Former_Member]

I haven't seen anything that says felt is exempt, but I don't know why it wouldn't be. Anyone know? Thanks.

I would sure think so since felt is fabric, and fabric is on the exempt list.

Most fibers are exempt, felt is made of fibers, therefore, felt is exempt. Threads are fibers, threads are exempt.

Some felt is made out of recycled plastic bottles!
Is this also exempt? actually, I hope not.

Felt is so wonderful!!! Hi to a fellow felter!

So how do you know if your felt is exempt? Is there a list somewhere?

[Former_Member]

Bailey, it looks like you use Eco-fi for most of your items which as I understand it, is exempt.

When you say exempt what do you mean? I make something with fabric for newborns. Do I still need a label if I am exempt?

[Former_Member]

The exemption list is strictly for the lead testing portion of the law. It means that even if you can not get a certificate of testing from the manufacture the raw material does not need to be tested.
All other portions, including labeling, of the law still need to be followed.
