I'm binging your beiginner videos because I'm going to get my materials this weekend and have a craft day with a friend, and I want to be ready! Your tutorials are awesome!
Thank you, hope you have a great craft day! X
I'm from SriLanka. I like your vidios. Today I started needle felting. Needle felt not popular in my country. But I like this somuch. Thankyou.
Thank you, it's becoming more popular slowly, I'm glad you like my videos x
Your videos are so helpful. I’m new to felting and am unfamiliar with many of the terms.
Thank you so much for sharing these videos for us to learn and enjoy.
Glad to help, thanks for watching and commenting, really helps the channel x
Thanks for uploading all of these videos, I have learned a lot from watching them! Love the little bloopers, hehe
Thanks! I like to throw in a few bloopers every now and then xx
I'm from Brazil but I can understand most of the things you say, your videos are really cool!! I love them 😍💖
That's great, so pleased and really happy you can understand most of it, thanks for watching x
I used an old cat brush I had, yes it took awhile but was worth it when I stared felting my animals. So you might be able to find a used one at a thrift store.
Definitely, good idea x
I am re watching your video's, they are packed to the Brim, with tips, tricks and inspiration. . Happy felting
Thanks ❤️
I've watched a few of your videos this morning and I'm officially hooked and subscribed!!! I'm ordering my first kit TODAY!!! Can't wait to get started
Aahh, fantastic, thanks for subscribing, good luck when you kit arrives and have a good look through my videos if you have any questions, I've got lots more videos planned too 😀x
Thank you for all your time to put these brilliant videos on. I have sheep on my own and usually wash the wool after shearing to get in ready for peg loom. I do not have a carder though. Is it possible to needle felt with just washed but not carded wool?
Hi, depends on the wool, you can buy dog brushes which are super cheap and card sections yourself. Carding just makes it easy but I use actual sheep locks for top coats which works well too xx
The bloopers haha 😂
Thanks! Must do some more bloopers, there's always plenty!
Thank you for the info. Stay safe and have a good day.❤
Thanks so much Cindy, you too x
Thank you for this - and all of your videos - you're fabulous!!
I just started on my felting journey and am loving it!! I bought a Desert Breeze kit through Amazon (US) and it came with what they call CORE WOOL ROVING- Corriedale wool which doesn't state if it's combed or carded, but sure seems like it's combed to me - it's slippery and smooth - fibers seem to be going in one direction - not too fuzzy. The kit also came with CARDED WOOL from New Zealand Maori Wool, those are much nicer to work with and give a far more uniform texture - maybe a bit more coarse at first, but more uniform and easier to blend in overlapping pieces. Their core wool seems to retain joint lines and doesn't blend nearly as easily as their carded colored wool. Is core wool supposed to be carded and not combed - to make it easier to form and shape, and less soft & slippery? I'm so confused... :)
Hi, sorry, only just seen your message, RUclips can be a bit funny with comments. Core wool is more likely to be carded or very rough, yes, there is no point putting wool through the combing process if it is going to be sold at a cheaper price as core wool. Roving is normally the same as tops, it's finer and as you say slippery, the needle slips between the fibres and is harder to catch and felt them, hence it takes longer to felt down. Anything carded is much easier to work with personally x
@@feltsbyphilippa thank you!! :) Yes, I now have only been buying CARDED wool and what a difference!! Your videos are FANTASTICAL - thank you for each and every one!!
No problem, love using carded wool, so much faster x
Hi, I’ve started saving Some money by using yarn for felting , I’ve also tried to mix
Some colors with the brushes, I’m getting these little spots through the fibers when I do
Like little pills in my material, is there a specific type yarn I should or shouldn’t use?
I do know what you mean because this sometimes happens when I card wool too but not much so I just pick them out. I've seen your question on the Facebook group so hopefully someone else may know if there are certain yarns to avoid. Lots of people do brush out yarn and use it successfully x
Thank you for this! It was exactly what i was looking for!
Glad you liked it x
Can it be financially viable to hand card wool in UK? Could you make the equivelant of the doll if you did it 40hrs week?
Hand carding on a drum but not with these little paddles. I've never done large amounts, someone who spins might be able to answer better as they normally do the full process, sorry I can't help more x
Hi Phillips what kit do you recommend for a complete beginner
Probably a Heidi Feathers one (she's closed for holiday at present, I have a link in my video description) but I think companies like The Makerrs, Felt Box, Sarafina Fibre Art are all great. Make sure the wool is carded (batts is sometimes the term in USA), top are harder to work with (see my wool video). Thanks so much for watching x
Hi, do you have a video on mixing colours by hand please? I've just started felting. Thank you
I'm afraid not but you literally just tease and mix it, the dog brushes get a much more even mix though x
Thanks so much!
Is there a way to card wool just by hand more effective? I really can't buy hand carder (or dog brush). Or just doing like in your video for a couple of minutes?
Just do it with your hands or even any old hair brushes, it will still help and make it easier to felt x
@@feltsbyphilippa ahh i see thanks a lot :3
No problem x
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks x
I got two dog brushes from Kmart for $3 each, they work really well.
Definitely, they are pretty much the same thing x
It would be nice to show what mixing less natural colors do. Like, would mixing a red and a yellow make something like an orange or would the colors still appear separate?
It takes time but they do become orange x
@@feltsbyphilippa good to know! I just bought dog slicker brushes as carding tools and will make use of thet knowledge because my local yarn shop did not have all the colors I needed
Is it okay if i card acrylic wool? Cuz its hard to find yarn wool at my country
Yes, I've done it as I don't like it as it comes just takes time though x
@@feltsbyphilippa and how about cotton then?
I don't have any cotton but have a look at my vegan/allergy video as I carded acrylic in that one x
Hi can you do that with bamboo?
To be honest, I don't know, I'm going to do a video looking at vegan wools and experiment as they are tricky to work with, give me a few weeks and I should have an answer x
Ah great thank you so much! x
Do you think it would be better to card my own needle felting wool? would it be cheaper
If you buy a fleece, wash it and then card it, it's definitely cheaper but a lot of hard work. If you are UK World of Wool is excellent for prices xx.
@feltsbyphilippa thanks a lot, that was very helpful. Even in New Zealand, the land of sheep don't have affordable wool!!!! Amazing 😁😀
Videos usually very good but it’s a shame on this one that you can’t see what Philippa is doing!
I've just updated the video to show the carding better x
@@feltsbyphilippa that’s great, thank you!
@@nicolaf6348 Hopefully it's a bit better, will completely redo if not enough and get any more comments, thanks x
@@feltsbyphilippa hi Philippa. it’s fine thank you! Thanks for making these tutorials and sharing your knowledge x
Your hands are too low…I couldn’t see anything you were doing…😞
2.26 the camera is on my hands so you can see what to do x
