  • 7 years ago
More on needle felting at: www.needlefeltingbasics.com

In this video, I show you how to make a needle felted monkey using a kit by Hamanaka. This is a great kit and I highly recommend it. It comes with all the wool you need as well as eye pins and embroidery floss.

In addition to the kit, you will need the following supplies:
felting needle(s)
felting pen
felting mat
scissors
glue
awl or compass
sewing needle
ruler

Time Required: approx. 2 hours
45 min to 1 hour for each monkey
base of monkey: 15 min
monkey's ears: 10 min (5 min each)
monkey's tail: 5 min
attaching parts and making face: 15 min

Tips:
-Use a small amount of wool for the ears. Much less than you think you will need.
-Felt on top of the diagram as I did when attaching ears to get the correct placement.

A: Etsy, Daiso, Amazon, Michaels, and Hobby Lobby all carry felting wool. If you are a beginner, you may want to look into needle felting kits, where you can get all the supplies you need to start.
