A pointer that helps with acrylic yarns; you can place a very transparent layer of wool (of the same color) over the top after you’ve felted in the yarn. It really helps to hold it in place.
Oh Bless you! I only recently learned yarn can be used in felting at all (I'm a total newbie and your content has helped a lot!) I had thought it would need to be a much higher wool count to work and felt into a piece. All of these methods are cute, and thanks for adding the bit at the end seeing them all together too, as that really gives me ideas of the ways I can incorporate yarn into projects to improve their overall look.
No problem, it's just useful to see what can be done with yarn and there's probably many more! Glad you liked it and thanks for your lovely comment ❣️ xx
I’ve watched you make so many of these different sheep. Pippa, but it’s really nice to have these different coat methods in one video. Thank you! Also, can’t wait to get my first Philippa kit!! It’s on its way!🎉
Brilliant use of yarn to make the fleeces. It seems to make the sheep look playful and cute in a certain way. Lots of interesting textures too. Loved this video ❤. 9:02
Thank you Philippa, I’ve just watched this clip for the first time and found it very helpful and encouraging.. I’m a beginner and sometimes feel daunted by the different wool techniques. I love watching your videos, it’s like spending time over coffee with a friend and picking up tips about the best places to order materials. Great fun xx😊👌🏻
Hi, I love your channel! I've been needle felting for less than a year, and I love it so much. Your videos have been so helpful! I have made three alpacas by looping the thin yarn as you showed, and it is time consuming! But so relaxing. Thanks so much for the great content. ❤️
Love the Suzie Sheep method. Will have to give it a try. I make my own locks. I don’t like the real ones. I know it’s all individual preference though xx
I make my own locks, but never used the oven ...what temp do you set the oven ? please . Once again Inspirational and just hands down brilliant Happy felting xxxxxx
Very useful video. I have some of that fluffy acrylic yarn which I thought would be perfect for sheep, but I couldn't get it to felt on at all. I may try what Melony has suggested and use a bit of carded wool to make it stick.

You're the sheep pro! You have some many videos about felting sheep! 😆
Sheep, cow's and horses are my favourites 😀
I do much thinner wool on the bamboo stick, you get more defined curls and no waste in middle if use thinner bits
Good idea, I get impatient I think! Xx
I just recently started felting, and I am so glad that I found your channel!! Your ideas and creativity are wonderful!!
Thank you so much, glad you like it x

It's like using real horse which won't felt at all so should definitely help xx
First I love you designs they’re very realistic
Thank you x
Omg I can’t believe you replied I love you sheeps and horses they’re amazing
Thank you, I try to reply to every comment x
hello, please could someone tell me what kind of wool is at 2:25? I know it was said in the video but unsure how to spell the name. Thank you!
Hi, yes, it's boucle yarn, a very unusual name, it's more common in actual wool suppliers where that be online or in person xx
@@feltsbyphilippa Thank you so much!
