I followed your tutorial. I had some free alpaca straight from the animal that I hand carded and then used to felt the hat. The wool I had was quite short as it was seconds. Anyway, it took me five hours and 4 oz of wool but I really like my hat. I could felt the width to 30% but not the length. So I cut off a little and rolled the brim. Thank you for this video. I can find no one near me for lessons or advice. You were a god send.
i just did the same!!
This was a fun class and it makes so much sense I wondered why I didn't think of it before..lol
It is really helpfully hearing you point out the importance of using fine wispy layers and checking for wholes while it is dry. I know I made the mistake of pulling thick pieces of wool when I made my vessel.
I really like the format of Marie narrating a process video. I feel like I am understanding it better through the first viewing and I will go back and view it again while I am actually doing it. Thanks so much!
I do the same!
I had not realized the amount of shrinkage that can occur as you felt it more and the substantial fabric that it creates for the durability and texture. So amazed!
Oh my goodness ...this is so cute!
I need to try and wet felt. You definitely inspire me
Another brilliant tutorial ❤️
I had to miss yesterday and I am so grateful to be able to see this process!!! Thanks Marie and the Fairies!!!
Thank you Marie and Fairy's learned lots again from you. Will be making a hat in the morning 😊
I can not wait to make this! I am a newbie at felting and have fallin' in love. Thanks for your great vids.
brilliant wooly wednesday, and exactly the style hat i like - i am going to HAVE TO make one of these
This is so cute! You made it seem very doable. Thank you.
Love this hat! Gonna make one this weekend.
Thank you for sharing. You make this look so easy. Can't wait to try this.
I loved seeing the show and tells this tutorial. Marie, you have a knack for great explanation.
Thank you, Lori!
Hello, I'm Berta and. I've tried to get in your class but not great with tech, but I watched two of your videos, so wish me luck, thanks.😊
it fits you very well ... a very nicely crafted felt hat...wow
Really liked the reminder that herringbone gives you more stretch!
This is such a great video. I made two hats this weekend - one from a an old pattern/resist and one using your pattern/resist. I really love this style.
So happy to see this! I probably have 50 resists (or more) that I've made - most of them unused as of now, just reminders of ideas - but for some reason, my brain just cramps when I try to envision a hat resist. Lol! 😋😝😜 Thank you, Marie and Faeries, for all you do for us! ❣❣❣
Very helpful video, thank you for all of the details, like portioning the wool ahead of time and using the sheeting to fold over the edges.
Thank you for having this Tutorial in You Tube! I ordered 4 beanie kits. One for me and 3 for gifts, Christmas or otherwise. I will start my first one tomorrow! (or today since it's after midnight). eager to watch more tutorials! Once I feel that I have the process down, I will teach my sculpture class and art club how to do this. I'm thinking we could use some beanies as fundraisers. I was at the TAEA workshop in early November and we made a pod. It was very satisfying. I'm looking forward to this process. I do need a dowl rod or something. I bet a rolling pin would work nicely.
So enjoyed watching and am so inspired!!!
Thank you again for making this video! I have made three different sizes now and love the hats!!!
That is wonderful!
I hate that I missed the live. I hope to make it to your shop this weekend to get supplies for this to make next week♡♡yay!!
So wunderbar erklärt- das werde ich auf jeden Fall versuchen! 1000 Dank dafür!!!
Amazing 🤩 thank you so much for this tutorial ❤❤❤❤❤
This was a great Wooly Wednesday presentation! Being new to wet felting there is soooo much I don't know like how to use silk hankies and understanding what they bring to a peice. It was facinating to see how you applied it. I'm very excited to give it a try myself. Thank-you!
Instablaster.
Thank you for the information & your expert knowledge. I will attempt this project soon,winter is coming.
We hope you have fun making yours!
Marie is awesome, great content 👍
Interesting. I will be making one.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am eager to make one for myself for two reasons - 1) It looks awesome!! 2) I have a hard time finding hats to fit me (might have an xl cranium)
very interesting tutorial. thanks
I’m thinking of another hobby & this might be it. Very interesting. Thanks for ur video.
@livingfelt Thanks sooo much!😊 I loooved your class! I saw another one where they didn't forgot to specify it is soap, what you use to shape the fabric. I went immediately and wrote it was starch! I m going back to correct!
Hi Claudia... we do not quite understand. But you seem happy 😊 Marie shaped this on her head, and she did not use starch.
Awesome 👍😍🤩
great! thank you!
Love it ❤x
Спасибо большое Вам за такую красоту!
Спасибо за ваши добрые слова.
Thank you very much! I'm in the process of attempting a hat but I'm starting with a disk shape because that's really all I found when I was searching (quite a while ago). Didn't occur to me to go with a beanie shaped resist to begin with (or to see if anyone had posted anything since I first started looking. Thank you again. This is a great video!
A disc shaped resist makes a beret!
Thanks for sharing. i have these kind of wools and i want to try it to make a gatsby hat 😂
Great video very clear. Thank you! I tried this. Made felt but did not shrink down. Too much wool? Instead of a hat I now have a poncho.
Thanks .
Hi! I liked your tutorial and mentioned you in my latest video! Thank you SOOOOO much for the Informations!
The math formula is super helpful
Can't wait to try this! Would it be too crazy to try to flare the brim on the resist instead of rolling up? I may need to try it both ways. I have a really big head and I'm worried that rolling up the brim will make it tight/I'll have to make it all even bigger!
You can flare it :)
Now I know why the felt hat I wanted to buy was $95.
That is awesome ♡
Marie referred to the cowl process. Is the silk base for this actual silk fabric or a viscous fabric? Best takeaway - using herring bone layout to create some "stretch" and if more wool used less shrinkage will be achieved. As ever so informative. Thank you.
This silk we refer to for the base was for the cowl only and it was silk fabric we used silk gauze and for the hat there is no silk fabric.
Did you do anything special while drying it to get the nice little folds in your finished beanie? :) very nice looking...I was shocked at how huge the resist is..wowwww! Thank you..loved this format of video too!
Hi Shawna...I did not pin or clamp, but you could! Long pins are best to avoid indentations from clamps.
This was a wonderful tutorial for someone interested in felting but only did flattish things (pot holders,, coffee press cozy). Maybe I'll try some fitted things - mittens anyone?
Great tutorial 😊 Can anyone tell me if there's another name for resist please? I can't find it very easily online (UK).
"get the kit" link doesn't work.
I've made it! Now just patience while waiting until it's dry~ THANK YOU!
Soon as I saw Fast Version i clicked.
Beautiful. Approximately how long (on average) would this take to make, for an experienced person to make please?
Marie, would this be possible and as thin when using batts? I have almost 100% batts verses roving ..could you tear the batt and lay it out flat to cever?
I would add thin layers.
Have I missed something?! Did Marie cover two sides with crisscross layers, but then a second layer on just one side. So the embellishments were on the side with the two layers on. Hope that made sense! I've done my first side but hesitate to go further until I'm sure I've got it right! Thanks! Great tutorial.
She did a HERRINGBONE LAYOUT (diagonal layers) and then a vertical layer. She said you can do criss-cross if you prefer. The herringone really is ONE layer, but she says she thinks of it as "two" because the diagonal rows pull across each other...but...it was ONE Herringbone, and then ONE vertical. 1oz of fiber per side.
Thank you Living Felt and Hello from the UK. Now I'll carry on with my beanie! Your tutorials are so interesting! I really look forward to Wooly Wednesdays!
loved the eggs..Do you want us to make white eggs for next week or colored ones?
This comment in hat video 😁 start with plain..then ince you see projects..you can decide color
#LivingFelt - Can this hat be made of all alpaca? A friend of mine recently added some adorable Huacaya alpacas to her farm and I would like to make her something from her fibers. Or should/could I mix it in with the merino? (I have both baby and adult alpaca fiber) Thanks for any advice.
I have used alpaca ,It turned out beautiful
Would tussah silk or bamboo top work as well as viscose?
Yes :)
Can you cut the length of cap after it has been fulled??? If so, do you just rewet and finish the edges???
Yes! We covered that in the LIVE session...forgot to mention here. Wet felt the edge to "heal" it...that will taper the cut and make it less blunt.
@@LivingFelt Thank you so much!! I watched the live version this morning! Can't wait to make one. I have my template made and am going through my wool to see what color I want to start with. Thanks so much!
Thank your for the Tutorial, approximately how many grams or oz was used for the hat in the basic color?
can felt make the fabric for majority of the hat types
If you don't have a hat block, how do you keep it formed without walking around with it on your head all day?
What is the best kind of soap to use?
Hard milled...high oil content. We use our Olive oil soap, imported from France.
Is the kit available any more? I clicked to buy it and it said page not found.
is this kind of hat that can be worn in acsauna
Your link to the kit goes to a 404 error. Are you not selling the kit anymore?
Sorry about that, here is the kit. feltingsupplies.livingfelt.com/wet-felting-hat-kit-beanie
@@LivingFelt Thanks so much!
My husband and I tried to figure this math out to do the resist and it looks huge!
Hi all, I am trying to make the resist for the felt beanie on Utube. I am brain dead when it comes to math especially after having Covid. My hubster helped so can anyone confirm we have this right?
My measurements are:
15 inches tall with two for rolled
up brim so 17 inches total tall
21 1/2 inches wide
So I take the
17” divided by .6 = 35”{40% shrinkage}
35” divided by 2 = 17.5” wide
18” divided by .6=30”
So my resist is 17.5 inches wide
30 inches tall
Can anyone confirm this for me please?
Well I just used an old knit cap, put it on my resist and gave it a few extra inches all around for shrinkage, so much for math.
I made mine in three hours not hurrying! Awesome!!!
The shrinkage calculations are so confusing...
Whoa, 35 inches tall..is that right?...I think k I have not been shrinking e ough
No..it was 18" tall, resist was 23" I think :)
