Needle felting tutorial - Mitten Christmas tree ornament
Today I made this little mitten Christmas tree ornament, using a cookie cutter as a mold.
This is a beginners tutorial and perfect for teaching kids how to needle felt. The cookie cutter adds a little bit of extra protection for your fingers
I am a self taught felter and have been hobby felting for about 15 years now.
Hope you find this tutorial helpful. If you have any questions please commet and I will try to respond as quickly as humanly possible.

    I love fairy houses/landscapes. I will definitely try this and, as a complete beginner, I hope to creates something that resembles this wonderful project. I couldn't tell but did you use the same needle for everything or did you different needles for different elements? My supplies should be arriving this week and I can't wait to get started. Thank you for the great video.

    • @TheHobbyBird
      @TheHobbyBird หลายเดือนก่อน

      I use 3 different needles...triangle gauges 36, 38 and 40. The 36 is a coarse needle and will bring your wool together quickly but will leave a lot of pitting. The 38 gauge (the one l use most) will help you shape everything. And the 40 is very fine and will give you a smooth finish. I also use the 36 to attach parts...it really knots the fibers together. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Thanks for watching and happy felting. 😊

    Hi! I'm going to make some of these with friends. We plan on making around 10 of these ornaments. How much white wool should I order for the balls? I'm on Heidi Feathers website and she has 100g of white merino wool for around $10. Thank you!

    • @TheHobbyBird
      @TheHobbyBird หลายเดือนก่อน

      @kristinbogdonas1369 I don’t measure the wool but I would assume you could get between 6 and 8 balls out of 100 grams of wool…10 if you make them smaller. I weighed a finished ball, the size of the one in the video, and it came to 13grams. I should note that I didn’t use merino wool for this project. I used carded batts…it’s a coarser wool. I am personally not a fan of felting with merino. I find it fussy to use and more difficult to work with. Just my personal experience. 😊
