Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- 6 oz. of combed wool
- Hot water
- Laundry soap flakes
- Scrap material
- Scissors
-
Step 1
Make a pattern of your hand by tracing it on a piece of paper.
-
Step 2
Copy the paper pattern onto a piece of cloth so you know have a cloth pattern.
-
Step 3
Layer wool over the cloth pattern by switching the direction it is laid down each time. If it is placed horizontally the first time, place it vertically the next time and so on.
-
Step 4
Flip the pattern and the wool over and repeat the process of layer. Once that is complete begin felting.
-
Step 5
Use the hot water with laundry flakes mixed in and pat the wool together. The fibers will begin to fuse together. Make sure to have the sides of the mitten fuse.
-
Step 6
Now all you have to do is let the mitten dry, remove the pattern and do the other mitten.
