1 oz of fleece is approximately enough for 2-3 dolls, depending on the size, hairstyle
and density of application. Each purchase includes hints and instructions for applying wool fleece to your dolls. |
Felting Needles |
Felting needles are one of the finest ways to attach wool to a soft sculptured
cloth doll. With felting needles the wool is actually anchored INTO the
doll whether it's a gorgeous hairdo, a full beard, mustache, bushy eyebrows,
or any other type of body hair. When applying wool with felting needles, at least 2 needles should be used together to get the best effects. That's why Forest Hollow Studio sells them in packs of 2. We've picked the sizes and types of needles we've had the most success with making our own dolls. We just wouldn't sell anything that we don't use ourselves and don't know will work for you too!! CAUTION - FELTING NEEDLES ARE VERY SHARP!! |
