Description Mongolian nomads have come to now and still producing various felt crafts such as ger canvas, felt-door of ger, floor cover, mat, saddle-cloth, saddle-rug, winter and summer socks, stockings, bag for new born lambs, bag for summoning prosperity, bag for cup, felt-boots, and so on. It is vital and practical in that the felt is used as a covering for the ger which can withstand the harsh weather conditions of Mongolia’s landscape and as material for devjee (mattress) olbog (cushions) or gifts for guests. Nowadays, various felt-made household needs, traditional felt crafts and souvenirs are being produced widely and becoming popular among foreign tourists.
