Wool felting
With a needle, a tuft of unspun wool can be shaped into a firm picture, a figure or a decoration. A felting needle has tiny barbs on its working part that tangle the fibres together with every repeated stab. Wool felting kits include everything you need for your first picture, from a printed design and coloured wool to needles and a foam pad.
Wool felting
Dry felting needs nothing more than a needle, a pad and a little patience, with no water or soap. The wool is placed on the pad or on the backing fabric, and the needle is pushed into it again and again, straight up and down, until the soft tuft becomes firm felt that holds its shape.
The easiest way to start is with felt picture kits, which come with a design printed on the base, wool in all the shades you need, needles and a foam pad. The finished picture is stretched in a round frame and can be hung on the wall. Wool felting kits are manageable even for complete beginners and also make a nice gift.
Felting needles have a triangular working part with barbs and are brittle, so they break easily if bent or pushed in at an angle. That is why it is worth having a pack of spare needles to hand. For larger areas, a felting pen that holds several needles at once is practical, as it compacts the wool faster.
The tip of the needle is very sharp, so work slowly, keep your fingers away from where you stab and always put a foam pad under the wool. Children should only use the needle under adult supervision.
