One technique - many possibilities!
The video starts by showing samples with the same layout and felting method, but different proportions of wool and viscose. The result is a very textured and soft felt.
The process of felting a scarf with poppies is shown in full.
The whole process of felting a long scarf takes place on an area of 1m x 1m
Quick layout of the wool
Materials: gauze, 18-19 mk wool and viscose fibres.
We will also need:
Bubble wrap
Ikea film or any other film for furniture (with small hard pimples).
Soap solution (a few spoonfuls of dishwashing detergent per 1 litre of water)
Olive soap (or other soap you are used to felt with)
Mosquito net (or other soft net )
Pipe or tube (length about 1m)
Ribbed soap dish or special felting "iron"
Polythene gloves (not vinyl or rubber gloves!)
