Note: If using a yarn with non-wool flowers and ribbons, these will need to be removed.
For the samples shown, a mix of the following yarns were used: Daisy Chain in Grand Prismatic and Natural Aura, Dreamland in Daisy Summer, Spun Cloud in French Vanilla and Lavender Dust, and Castaway in Prism.
Felting needle or needles (single or multi-needle holders)
Recommended to use size 36-46 - The finer the needles, the smoother the wool will become. While either a single or multi-needle holder can be used, you may find the single needle holder easier to use and to replace the needle if it breaks.
Foam felting pad or Felting Mat (9 x 9” / 23 x 23 cm foam felting pad was used)
Leather finger protectors, optional
