In this video, I show two ways to needlefelt black-capped chickadees with sheep's wool roving. For more bird-making fun, check out my cardinal video! • How to Needle Felt a C...
Great video!!! You’re a pro at needle felting!! I just got started and had good luck with my first kit!! But would like to make animals & birds on my own with no kit some day.
Thanks! The more you practice with different kits, the easier it will be when you go off on your own. And don’t be afraid to make mistakes (or make really ugly projects), that’s definitely part of the learning process!
Awesome video! I just took a class and I appreciate your techniques and will use them to make my favorite bird, the chickadee. Thanks so much. I see you have a cardinal video as well. I'll probably sub! Thank you for the instructions.
Love it ! I'm new to this craft but omg it is so look much fun!!. And easy!! Definitely going to try to follow your video to make one of these adorable chickadees. Thanks for a great video!
Mill waste is the leftover bits from a fiber mill that don’t make the cut for yarn/roving/ whatever they’re producing. You can sometimes get a deal on it at your hypothetical local fiber mill. In the likely case that you don’t have a local fiber mill, you can use core wool, which is a coarser wool, usually not dyed, and usually less expensive than the pretty and soft tops and rovings. Core wool is a lot easier to find, if not at your favorite local fiber store then online. Good luck!!
