Woniya on Making her Fur Parka for Alone Frozen
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ส.ค. 2024
- The fur parka I made for season 6 kept me warm in arctic temperatures and helped me survive 73 days out there. For Alone Frozen, I did a complete overhaul to make it more fitted and even warmer. Here I discuss the strategy I used and the changes I made to make it and incredibly functional garment (too bad the weather wasn't nearly as good for it in Labrador!)

I'm Woniya Thibeault and my channel aims to provide educational and inspirational videos about wild foods, survival, ancestral, homestead and off-grid living skills (hide tanning, basketry, handcrafts, and more) travel and wilderness adventures, and ecology; and to help people feel more capable, engaged and connected.
Had a winter coat made by the innuit ladies in Baker Lake , Nunavut . Best coat I own . Enjoy your education
That is one awesome Parka you’ve made
It was very nicely designed,,very pretty 😊❤
A versatile beautiful parka! I have a bond with my winter coat, like a friend! Your parka is truly a piece of art work! Thank you very much for sharing! I am looking forward to your other posts for skills! Suzanne 🤠
Just wanted to congratulate you on winning frozen alone, you did awesome 👏
great job. I learned a process of rabbit hide tanning.
Congratulations, was really happy to see your success. Love seeing your handmade gear, especially all the details and technical minutiae.
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY my friend
I was so happy when you won, Congratulations!!! I had a tear in my eye watching you reunite with your man. When you asked if all the other contestants were ok shows what a compassionate, deserving person you are. Great job Woniya!
Rewatching season 6 of “Alone.” Very jealous of that birch tree :-) Saw you won “Frozen”; congratulations!! You’re a fascinating person. Love your channel.
Amazing job. I really want one. Especially with some boots
You’re a special person!! Congratulations on wining ALONE FROZEN! Great job! Big fan.
Wow! Super wealth of info and great information. Neat and look forward to watching more as time permits. Thanks for sharing. Awesome parka! Gets me thinking about mods to Goodwill Store finds.
Simply Brilliant! Thank you
That parka is so fantastic it makes me want to yell out obscenities!!!!
I immediately noticed & loved your hand-made parka. The uneven bottom was like a natural edge table - it looked more authentic. Beautiful.
Helluva garment
Woniya thank you for sharing your journey! Watched you on both Alone and Alone frozen, so happy for you your an incredible inspiration for us ladies! Also being from Marysville CA your a home town HERO.
That parka is outstanding!
Woniya, congratulations again on your monumental achievements winning Frozen. 1st Woman and longest total time ALONE. So happy to see you looking healthy and happy. I truly hope all your dreams come true. Your coat for frozen is a work of art. Can’t wait to hear the whole video to see if FUNCTION & FASHION came together this time. You and your channel are so interesting. One day when I have more time, I will look into your Patreon. Thanks
Thanks Jerry
Could you send me the Patreon information so I’ll have it? People always mention links for different things but half the time, I can never find them. Thanks
Oh, I just had a crazy idea when I saw you posing in your Hand made Parka for the different Alone shows. Again, this is a compliment to all of you strong women. What about a calendar of each of you in your full gear from the show. I feel so many of you are naturally photogenic it would be such a cool memento for each one of you and all of your fans. Of course for the ladies who are fans of the men, they’re welcome to do it too. I know it’s probably a silly idea but you seem like someone that is open minded to different ideas and this one just popped in my crazy mind.
Being the show and results were sometime back, what have you been able to do about your wilderness school or whatever you mentioned you had plans for if you won? Thanks and take care.
Congratulations on winning Alone Frozen! You are an amazing and inspiring person Woniya! :) And cute as well
Congrats Woniya. I was rooting for you on season 6 and this time on Frozen. You did it!! Amazing!!
That's was a brilliant idea
Congratulations to winning !!! I didnt know until I saw in the comments, you are soo worth it as far as I can see. Your attention to details is just incredible. I feel kind of proud that you are using scandinavian reindeer fur, I am from Sweden... But the thing you noticed about shedding is really true, I have one at home that I have used as a sleeping pad (combined with a old fashioned closed cell mat). The shedding is wat made me stop using it, its now just a backup in my storage.
Yes, as reindeer is a hair not fur, nothing seems to keep them from shedding. They are still warm and soft of course, one just has to get used to getting hair all over them! sometimes okay and sometimes not good!
Oregon leather! I love them too... they know me. but I've moved back to my indigenous home land in Maine
Belated congrats and excellent video. Beautiful coat!
Congrats so happy for you. Excellent upgrade from season six experience and a beautiful garment.
Love you, big fan
You should be proud of that jacket, its gorgeous .. What a great looking piece of clothing. Looks like a French twist stitch on the back of the coat ? Love the color combo and functionality.
Lovely jubley, congrats again on a well deserved win!
Dang girl, that's one impressive garment! You should fly to Yellowknife this winter just so you can stroll the streets comfy and cozy. How much does it weigh?
One word: Phenomenal!
Cheers from Alaska
I would LOVE to return to Yellowknife! Actually doing some real fishing up there, ice fishing or otherwise, I'd very much a goal of mine!
Good question- it's definitely pretty heavy! I haven't actually weighed it but it's a great idea
Beautiful!
I noticed a puffer or synthetic vest later inside your parka. Thanks for the awesome. Educational videos and congratulations!
🤣🤣🤣my winter coat (made by me) is a total mix of furs as well, several different animals
Awesome jacket! I hope the mice don't chew on it. Oh, I just read a spoiler below dang it! I haven't seen Alone Frozen yet.
that jacket is fucking awesome.
You live in Cali as do I. How do I get a permit to harvest roadkill for fur processing? Thanks! Congratulations on your big win!
So; it's kind of a gray area right now where it isn't illegal to pick them up but also the permit process hasn't been finalized. You can get an "educational use" permit but a regular use one. I have had officers stop and help me when picking them up though, so for now it seems to be okay to do so without a specific permit
@@BuckskinRevolution thanks Woniya!
Inspiring! Beautiful work!
Very nice work! I’m working on making a moose hide coat that sheds a lot like that. I worked at a butcher shop and a fellow brought it in and didn’t want the hide so I snagged it up. I fleshed it but sent it to a tannery. Your skill set is amazing and I’ve enjoyed the brain tanning videos. I’ve got a couple elk and deer hides I’m gonna give a go at tanning. Thanks for the great content
Awesome, good luck
Congratulations to winning Alone frozen. You just prove that having a positive attitude can conquer your fears!! It's a surprising win as most of the strongest people pulled out early. I hope that you have to money to compete your dreams and make a good school to teach other people your positive energy!! Just one thing ? Did you eat all the fox?
Please Woniya. On Alone Frozen, (congratulations on your fantastic win) where did you get your 2 quart pot? I'm desperately trying to find one but I can't find it anywhere.
Huge advantage with those natural material you are using is they are not flamable. Fur, leather wool are quite fire safe at least compared to syntetics.
Very true- I brought a synthetic pair of pants this time for the earlier, wetter part of the season and left with quite a few significant holes in them from sparks. My wool pants, which I sat closer to the fire in, not one!
Maybe for the wet weather have a beaver cloak.
That would be fabulous, but cloaks aren't one of the allowed clothing g items on Alone. Also beaver fur is amazing and waterproof on the beaver, but doesn't stay that way when it isn't being constantly piled, preened and tended to by the beavers themselves
So beautifully skilled you are.
Q’s: Do you/would you make coats for buyers? Are your garments had sewn or sewn by machine? If so what sewing machine do you use or recommend for such tasks? Do you sell patterns?
I use a combination of hand sewing and machine sewing, depending on the project and my needs. But no, I no longer do commission work.
I wonder how the type of tanning affects the hair slippage on reindeer.. for example I've heard folks say rawhide is better for sleeping pads than chrome tanned because the hair doesn't slip. Also, on another note, is waxed buckskin a thing? like how people make oilcloth?
Yes, bark tanning would reduce hair slippage more, but would be a bit tight and stiff for a garment of this kind. And ni, buckskin is by its nature very absorbent, waxing it would be like trying to waterproof a towel, or downs r make sense, where as grain on leathers are naturally water resistant so a better choice if that's what you're after
@@BuckskinRevolution Ah yes, it seems the same challenge getting breathable and waterproof gear applies to natural materials too! Thanks for your response.
I am curious if you need a Trapping permit/license when you pick up "Road Kill"?
It depends where you live, every state has different regulations, fro quite illegal to laces where they call to alert you, and everything in between
Thank you. I'll have to check. I would imagine it would depend upon whether the road is under Federal or State jurisdiction too.@@BuckskinRevolution
I just started watching frozen and think they should have been given shotguns for safety. Polar bears can be very aggressive and will charge straight for meal if they’re hungry. I’m only the second episode but they were all crazy for going out there with nothing…👍🏾✌🏾
Always wear real furs.
