@@GraveyardLoon few weeks maybe? It was right at the change of seasons, so luckily (?) Fondue was shedding a lot. Like some weirdo catlady, I saved the fur in a gallon sized ziplock bag. It's not lifesize or anything 😂
For large needle felt projects I actually used socks to make a plush base in the shape and approximate size I wanted. Also tip for cheap wool is getting a pair of those metal pet brushes and just buy yarn. You can find guides for this but you can basically just brush out the fibers into workable needle felt wool ✨
Is there anything you can’t do???! You are so underrated I’m surprised you don’t have millions and millions of subscribers because your creativity and personality is just through the roof
I agree he kinda reminds me of myself I’ve tried so many crafts. Printing, clay, resin, chainmaille, shrinky dinks, digital art, colored pencils, markers, jewelry with wire wrapping, sewing. I think everyone should try these crafts they’re so fun even if you’re my great! Especially chainmaille I can do that for hours and it’s just so simple and fun! Also I hope no one thinks this is self promo I don’t post yt vids. I just love me some new crafts!! Honestly if anyone has recs of ones I haven’t mentioned I’d love to learn some new ones!
You can use polyfil as a center and needle felt the color wool around that to save your nice color wool. It's takes a bit more work to get it to shape up but it's worth it to save your nice colors.
I love your videos 🤩 also you’re designs are so cute and scary at the same time and I really love your artstyle! Sometimes I sorta binge watch your videos lol
Fun fact ! You can take two dog brushes and put the colors you would like and you can brush the dog brushes together and it will make a new color! Love these *evil* little guys!
Just a note if you ever want to do needle felting again: styrofoam will dull your needles and probably break them more easily. Instead of getting another supply you can just use sponges, given that you took the rough green part first, but that will be the perfect material and super cheap!
I've been needlefelting since I was 9 or 10 (I'm currently 15) and it's very impressive how much skill you've cultivated even though you've only needlefelted a few times. ofc there's room for improvement, but I'm very impressed at your skill!!!
people who are good at needle felting scare me. to have the patience to stab something thousands of times without going insane. makes you wonder what else they are capable of
Heya, prolific felter here! You can use pet brushes to brush out yarn for felting (try sticking to wool yarn btw, acrylic works but is tough to needlefelt compared to wet felting and cotton sucks ass) Also you can get more colors off etsy, my favorite sellers are curlyfurr by Beth sellers and carrparkartisen both on etsy. The keywords you'll want to use is "wool roving" and "felt fiber" since some people don't advertise their fiber as needle/wet felt fiber but instead as yarn spinning roving. Felting fiber is very versatile which is why I love it! Also for textures you can use locks, nepps, or coils! The name of the wool dictates which sheep it comes from. Merino sheep have the finest and softest wool but I do recommend roughing the fibers to felt otherwise you'll get lines. I personally prefer corridale as it's soft af and felts quickly! Also using a core fiber to make the shape helps save those colored wool pieces! It's called "core fiber" and is pretty cheap per Oz. You can also use polyfil but it's slippery so it may be frustrating! Hope this was informative and helpful, I really love felting and love answering questions!
Wow, this was more informative than most TH-cam tutorials. I think with the amount of knowledge you have on the matter, you should get a pet sheep and make your own from their wool. I like watching that woman on TH-cam shorts sheer all the pet sheep.
@@jessicadavis5444 ooo I love watching sheep shearing videos! If I had the space I'd love to have chickens and sheep but I live in a big city! I am working on trying to find places to volunteer, I love fiber and nature! I have been considering making a resource for new felters to help learn the words needed to research, as when I began many assume you have basic sheep knowledge which makes sense (they were all making videos for locals in Scotland haha) but it made it hard to find information
I watched the channel @clubcrochet when I started. There’s a beginner play list. There’s not much of a learning curve to it so you can make cute stuff shortly after learning the basics. Like amigurumi!
You can also use a piece of firm upholstery to stab on and also one of those firmer sponges that have the scratch side. You can also use like.. that fabric store white pillow filling to use as a core and then use your wool to color it around it. you don't use as much as the wool so it will go further. Some also use yarn too!
Loon! Even Though I haven't finished the video yet, I already know that you did a great job! I have watched your other needle felting videos and you are so talented!
Hey loon I'm kinda of under the weather but I still watched your video on time and comment on time because I'm just a very dedicated fan to you and a friend 😀
Heyy! I hope you start feeling a bit better soon & I hope you're getting plenty of rest! Hopefully watching me stab squishmallows will help ease your suffering 💜
@@marceliamonirahossain8274 yeah let's stab squish mallows *stairs at my tail* ah peanuts I forgot my tail is not a arrow head tail it's spherical shaped *starts to grab something* my brother phantom ridley Ridley: "would you put my tail back" oops sorry I'll grab something else ooooo I found something else Johnny's knife now I'm ready
I love your vids they have help me grow as an artist 👩🎨 your so funny and entertaining. You have also helped me turn my friends to the dark side. Keep up the good work. ❤️
I've seen some people using sponges as the base for needle felting...maybe it's better than the foam. I felt your pain when all those needles broke! 💔 Avery looks amazing! 🦆 You should be really proud! 😘
I love that your not just starting new art forms and then never touching them again! There's a lot of people who try out stuff for just 1 video and then I never see them do it again! Good on you for continuing and growing your skills while we get to see your progress! So cool!
we used to do needle felting in grade school (i guess that's what you call it in english?? when i was 8-10). I loved it so much! We also did wet felting few times. It was very messy and smelly, but this super fun :' D
Although both female and male Holstein cows have horns, Connor is a boy because it doesnt have an utter. "Cow" in this sense is just referring to bovine. Justsayin 😂
I've seen a number try it, but no one sticks with it 😭 understandable though; it's time consuming just to make something small and most consider it tedious labor. I find it relaxing myself but not everyone does
I did this a lot this year, lol and a little tip: using a sponge for the “stabbing” part is a lot easier and using two sponges stacked on top of each other, helps the needle not to break, loved the video!
So I saw this video and thought but it’s only Thursday why is he posting then I looked at the time and date thing on my iPad and said WAIT ITS FRIDAY I had no idea 😳 also needle felting is really cool I started a while ago it’s cool
Hi I just found your channel today and I’ve already watched tons of videos. I love your humor and editing style, and all around vibe. Plus the spooky/creepy theme you have with the other things you create. (And Graveyard Loon is such a cool name)
I have mallard ducks. The males look like the females till breeding season. They are much quieter then the girls. I love your mallard duck so much! All the felt figures are soo cute! Thank you! I hope you're both doing well to
You could list squishmallows you’re in search of if you’d like. Maybe someone has them and is willing to part with them. Welcome to the world of never ending squishmallows 😂 also, the felt ones you made are adorable as heck.
I kinda rename all my squishmellows so even tho he was talking about my favorite one before he actually put it on camera I had no idea who’s he talking about I have Avery (the duck) but I named him….duck I also have a green apple or a pear one, I thought it was a pare when I got it, I named him…Peary
I hope a million people haven't commented that already but for pieces like the cow's spots, you can use felt sheets cut into shape and then stab them into the white body, less mess and contamination this way!
Guys who thinks that AVERYYYYYYYYYY is one of the favourites…I don’t think we can be friend so..graveyardloom MAKE MERCH OF AVERYYYYYY PLS. GOD BLEES YOU
😀🖤✂️Grandma Loon fan here. Fabric/cardboard scissors?!?! NOOO! I love you to pieces, so I'm here to tell you that you more than deserve your own dedicated fabric scissors! 😀🖤✂️

If you do ever decide to go bigger, shop for "wool roving". You can buy it in bulk, use uncolored wool inside, and save the colored wool for the outside.

Hi loon!
omg I'm early
I once needle felted an entire cat figure out of shedded cat fur that I brushed off of my cat.
Wowww.... how long did it take you to collect that much fur 😲
@@GraveyardLoon few weeks maybe? It was right at the change of seasons, so luckily (?) Fondue was shedding a lot. Like some weirdo catlady, I saved the fur in a gallon sized ziplock bag. It's not lifesize or anything 😂
@@fyredance Love that name, Fondue! LOL
@@fyredance I love your cats name omg and I could probably make many projects out of all three of my cats...as they shed ALOT
I could make a life size statue of my cat with all the fur he sheds. It would probably take half a month to a month to get the fur but yea
I love how obsessed he is with Avery, bc be honest we all are (also surprisingly good a needle felting for only doing it a few time)
It's the flappy flippers for me. 10/10 😍
I have an Avery Squishmallow and he's honestly my favorite thing ever. Though I call mine Puddles
Isn't he though!?
I need an Avery in my life 🥺
@@Catherine-lq2dl I want an avery squishmallow so bad but can never find him :((

You can use polyfil as a center and needle felt the color wool around that to save your nice color wool. It's takes a bit more work to get it to shape up but it's worth it to save your nice colors.
i sometimes use a light color i wouldnt otherwise use as a center sometimes

Ooo I was first lol
i would love to see you try crochet. once you get the basics it can be really fun to make different characters
I wouldn't even know where to begin.. but I did once take a crochet class in elementary school so maybe I have some long-lost skills to brush up on 😂

@@ShainaMakesStuff THIS! I was basically gonna say everything you just said.
@@GraveyardLoon my mom taught me when I was a kid but I relearned how from a book I got at Michael's.
wait till he learns you can make dolls 😈😆
My name is Avery and I am glad my name could beheld be such a gorgeous piece of art as this squishmellow (TBH I really want this squishmellow now) 😅 😂
same
I can’t get over how ADORABLE THIS IS AAAAAAA

Polyfill. Yes 😁 it saves a metric ton on wool. Very scratchy though so definitely still want to cover it with white wool
@@rougnashi Thank you, that's what it's called! I lost my English for a moment there XD

When you mentioned Felipe's nose and mouth looked like a smiley face I couldn't unsee the smiley face. I love your mini needle felting squishmelos
Avery looks so good I love ducks so Avery is my personal fav.
Hi from south Africa! This is honestly my favourite channel and I laugh through the entire video!
I've seen some people using sponges as the base for needle felting...maybe it's better than the foam. I felt your pain when all those needles broke! 💔
Avery looks amazing! 🦆 You should be really proud! 😘
It's so horrible when I'm sewing and the needle breaks 😫
I love that your not just starting new art forms and then never touching them again! There's a lot of people who try out stuff for just 1 video and then I never see them do it again! Good on you for continuing and growing your skills while we get to see your progress! So cool!
tip to get extra pieces like the tail to attach, always leave a bit of extra, unfelted wool at the base so you can felt it in to the main piece
because of you i have become addicted to squishmallows. i only own 1 but i need at least 4 more.
This is cool! My favorite is the black cat!😸
This is so impressive and you made it look easy!!! Amazing video!
Oh my goodnesses for the second time that is super impressive

If we’re getting precise about Avery being a boy (because he is), then Connor the (dairy) cow is a girl. Jussayin. 😂👏 My fave is EMILY THE BAT. 🦇💖🖤
Lol I agree, you're absolutely right. Connor is a cow, therefore he's a girl 💯
Although both female and male Holstein cows have horns, Connor is a boy because it doesnt have an utter. "Cow" in this sense is just referring to bovine. Justsayin 😂
How do we know Connor is a dairy cow? Holsteins come in both genders and I didn't see any udders! What does Connor think about all of this?
@@fyredance ah I thought only females were that pattern (Holstein), so that’s a my bad!
@@bootercup001 LOL no worries, it's all good, I'm just teasing you and didn't mean to make you feel bad about it
Wow you are soooooo good at needle felting ! Good job 👏👍
I love needle felting/felt pocking!
First time seeing a ytuber that I like doing something I'm interested in🙃✌🏼
I've seen a number try it, but no one sticks with it 😭 understandable though; it's time consuming just to make something small and most consider it tedious labor. I find it relaxing myself but not everyone does
I agree it is time consuming but hopefully with summer coming around it gives people more free time to explore new hobbies! :)
I hope so! ❤

So I saw this video and thought but it’s only Thursday why is he posting then I looked at the time and date thing on my iPad and said WAIT ITS FRIDAY I had no idea 😳 also needle felting is really cool I started a while ago it’s cool
Him:Very cute very evil
Him: flick*
The cat: EEEEÆGH
Did you know you can get wool dryer balls and needle felt on top of them?
I lost it when he said "little ball of lint"
You did great
the cow is so cuuute
Amazing! Needle felting is going to be my next new project thank you for doing another needle felting project!!:
Early! I love your videos btw. They are so fun and you make my day. Thank you so much!
You did such a great job! They look perfect!
Felting is very fun

Good job you ended up on my for you page. Also this earned another sub
just by the thumbnail i can tell this will be great. just. great.

I love your channel I love squishmellows
their are sooo cute!
wait did i see pickle the dinosaur?
Yay I love needlefelting

You’re doing an amazing job needle felting!
You did great for only doing this a few times! I love the tiny felted squishmellows!
Hi! I have never been this early! Sniffledorf is SO CUTE.
Oh just so you know cats love to tear these things to pieces.
Adorable
I have avery,
That’s the only one in this video that I have lmao
Nice to know of the different ones though
I kinda rename all my squishmellows so even tho he was talking about my favorite one before he actually put it on camera I had no idea who’s he talking about
I have Avery (the duck) but I named him….duck
I also have a green apple or a pear one, I thought it was a pare when I got it, I named him…Peary

If you lift Avery's wings up against his head you can give him mutton chops. Then you can give him an old English bobby accent.
6:40 if Avery has the biological features of a male duck but their tag says "she", does that mean Avery is canonically trans? 🤔🏳️⚧️
Mooovin on 😂
I m a needle felting artist. I think your works are great 👍
AVERY 🤣🦆 I love Avery soooo much mawh 😙🦆
If you do ever decide to go bigger, shop for "wool roving". You can buy it in bulk, use uncolored wool inside, and save the colored wool for the outside.
Cow and frog have a shared first place in my hearth duck and cat a shared second place (Sorry Avery)
