Sheep: Needle Felt Tutorial
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лют 2025
- Watch in HD! Hello! This is our first video, so we thought we'd start off our channel, Cloud Sheeps, with a sheep tutorial.
I used three felting needles at once, as this speeds up the felting process significantly. However, one is just fine, and when felting details it's best to just use one for more precision.
For the wool, I used polyester fiberfill, which is the stuffing that is used inside of stuffed animals. This is a cheaper alternative to felting wool, though it does take a bit longer to felt, and isn't as soft.
These are two popular websites where you can buy all these crafting materials:

We hope you enjoyed the video!
Didn't know you could felt the stuffing! You're saving lots of wool like this! Thanks for the tutorial!
I had no idea you could use stuffing for felting! I'm impressed
+CandysLooks ikr?
Yea i was like 😲😨 oh no i need permishion for an 9 yr old i can do this
Omg i am gonna rip a teddy bear
Oh my gosh, thank u so much! I never knew stufffing was a substitute for felting wool. This came out great!
I recently learned Quilling and I like it. I saw this and thought it was lovely. I think it'll be my next project. Gee, I love being retired! LOL
(This is secrectly my goals)
I had worked 5 year so I can make all animals
You make needle felting looks so easy and fun. This will be the first project for my girl and myself. Thank you for sharing such a great tutorial! :)
Cindy Ho I'm glad you liked it! I hope it goes well! ^ - ^
Nice! I have a bunch of fiberfill sitting around, and never thought about using it for needle felting. I'll definitely give this a try!
ashtheroarus Cool ^ - ^ I hope it goes well!
you can always use a felting pen (bundle of needles in a pen shaped capsule) instead of holding them 3 together, i found this way most helpful! ^^
Sheep are my favorite animals
so cute..! I think I'll have to make this my first project once my wool arrives!!
Galaxie Sucre Yay! I hope it goes well! :D
What a cute little sheep! If you're short on felt, like me, you can use sponge-like things as the bulk of the tummy and then layer wool over that. The only problem with that is the body might be a little harder, but thats okay, the world isn't a cheap place XD
magic eraser make's a good inner body for less round projects ^_^ you can even layer the magic eraser inside to make it more 3D without using so much wool
That sheep is so cute good job! 🐑🐑
you're really good at needle felting :) and this is so adorable :D
Wow I didn't know u can needle felt with stuffing
Ya
That is sooo cuuuute. You make it look so easy!
How adorable. Thanks for the tutorial!! 👍🏼😊
This is incredible work! Love this!
SO CUTE! i never knew that you can felt with stuffing
Thank you! Felting with stuffing does take much longer than felting with felting wool though, which is probably why a lot of people prefer to just stick with felting wool.
Very nice video, easy to follow, thanks!
If I want to Make this sheep black will I be able to find black stuffing? Also what color Wool would I use for the head and the belly and the mouth? Also do they make those screw eyes in blue?
Little wooly chubbler! Totally cute, must make one.
This is sooo cute!!!😊 You just got a new subscriber😉👍
Vienna chicata Thank you thank you! ^ - ^
Me to ME LOVE YOU AND 🍪🍪
I love your work💟
You just earned your self a subscriber :)
That's really cool and cute!🐑👌🏻💕
Madeleine Layman Tee hee I'm glad you thought so ^ - ^
Its so adorable ,i love it!
Super cute...I'm going to try it.
So you used the stuffing for the most part? And the cream wool for just covering the face and stomach? i love the sheep btw :)
Cindy Kim Thank you! Yup, everything is mostly stuffing, and I covered the face, belly, and legs with the colored wool.
i am also sheep you know ? your needle skill is very clever and very good !! but then not good to poke needle in the sheep cause we also feel painful like humans. Please be kind to animals you know ? but this video very good i give wool up to you !
so cute... I love this sheep^^
so fluffly😍
Love it so much good job on making this
Dis is soo cute! I'm going to try dis my self one day!
Is it hard to make it?
I think it could help some people so if you don't have the felting needle, you can use the needle of a sewing machine. It have a similar shape, even it's a bit longer to felt with that but it's less expensive!!!
No because felting needles have barbs. Sewing needles are smooth
If i did this myself I would die of cuteness and of blood loss from poking myself too many times
Lol I get it because the wool is fron sheep. Nice one.
what kind of stuffing did you use? i use the kind of stuffing that is really thin and feels like plastic. please respond!
+Thetsumtsumcrochetshop Hi! The polyfil I use is also pretty thin and plastic-y, and I get it from Walmart. I find that generally any kind of stuffing will work, just some require more felting time to shape than others. I hope I helped! :)
+Cloud Sheeps i also got mine at walmart! where did you get the eyes? i have been looking for them forever! can you send me the link? that would really help! BTW you are really good at felting! the best ive seen so far! keep it up!
+Cloud Sheeps oh that helped me a whole ton! thank you for responding!
+Thetsumtsumcrochetshop Hi! This is the link to the plastic safety eyes I use (etsy):

Sorry about the late reply, but I hope this helps you! I'm definitely not the best at felting, but thank you for the compliment ^ - ^
+Cloud Sheeps Thank you! did you get the needles from etsy too? please respond soon!!!
So cute!!!!!!!!😊😉
ITS SO FLUFFY IM GONNA DIE!❤️❤️❤️
Sophia Lewis ^ - ^ I should make a needle felted unicorn for a future video! Tee hee...
That would be AMAZING!!!
Hermosa ovejita!!!
Mad work brush!!!
I love this! You should do a giveaway. This is amazing and I love your videos!
How the hell do you felt stuffing ;-; I tried many times but failed
How long does it usually take you to make the stuffing more solid
Hi! It usually takes around half an hour to an hour, if I'm using multiple felting needles at the same time.
thank you because i tried to make my own and it wasnt getting hard at all
Hi! Yeah, it does take a really really long time with just one needle, so don't give up! (Or use more needles, if you have them) ^_^
So cute!
How long did it take to do the sheep?
Am going to subscribe to be sure :)
+Debera Douaire Hi! I don't really remember how long that took me as it was so long ago but I think it took me a couple of hours >.< Felting is a very long process :P
your videos are so cool you deserve a 🐕 and a🐈.
Adorable!!!
is there any tips for smoothing out the fuzzies :(
ABiteOfMe Hi! The fuzzies definitely are very hard to deal with! Generally, the more you felt your project, the less fuzzies it will have. If you felt your project until it's very very firm, then there would generally be less fuzzies. I hope I helped ^ - ^
Thank you :') still a newbie in it but thanks for the tip~ i'll poke it moar!! D:
Another two tips for combating fuzz:
You can use an embroidery scissors to lightly trim over the surface; it works really well if you do it right.
Also, for more solid projects, and before any plastics or fixatives are applied, you can lightly mist your piece(s) with water and put it (/them) in a dryer for a few minutes to firm everything up. (You want just enough moisture to lock things in place; if you get your items too wet, they'll shrink or warp.)
I hope this helps!
Can u just use stuffing and a big sewing needle?
+Daisy Seals Unfortunately, you can't use a sewing needle, as felting needles have barbs in them to tangle the wool. Sewing needles won't do anything >.< Hope I helped!
Where did you get the wool
+Abhi Abhi I got the polyfil from Walmart, and the felting wool from Etsy, though you can also order it from Amazon. Hope I helped!
To the people who think you can just use a regular needle and wool, you can't. It requires a special needle.
+xchelsiplierx Yes, and the needle hurts more than a regular needle when you accidently stab yourself. 0_0
***** I know that its so painful >.
Wait wut 😳😳😳😳😳😳
+Piggy Nguyen the needles have tiny little barbs on them so it actually knots up the wool as you push it in and pull it back out. A regular needle will do nothing.
and where from you can buy this special needle??
That sheep is cute
What if you wanted to make a sheep with black wool?
Akumu Chi Then you wrap the polyester stuffing/ core wool with black on the wooly part
Akumu Chi Hi! I guess making it with black wool would be kind of difficult, but I think how I would do it is to just forget using the stuffing and make the head, tail, feet, and body as separate parts, and make the body entirely using black wool, and then connect everything...sorry if that's confusing >.< Galaxie Sucre's idea is also good, especially is you don't have that much black wool to spare :)
Would be nice if a store sells needlefelting stuff near me.
I dont do online shopping.
🇧🇷 parabéns achei belíssimo!!👍👍não sabia que podia fazer com a fibra de silicone ( é assim que é chamado aqui no Brasil 😉)Obrigada querida por dividir seus conhecimentos .Bjos 😘💞💕💗
Bravo!
WOW This is cute!
+Minnies Minute I'm glad you like it! :D
Where u get the wool cute
+Alejandra Lozano Hi! I got the polyfil from Walmart, and I ordered the felting wool from etsy (you can also get it from amazon). Hope I helped!
Can you use a normal needle?
Caprisuns are really good no, needle felting needles have barbs on them to tangle the wool
banana cat ah ok thanks
New subscriber!!!!!! :)
This is my heaven
Undertale Trash
Hi garbage
What are the little eyes called??
Marih Ann Lugo Hi! I think you can get needle felting eyes, but the ones I use are amigurumi eyes (to be exact: Darice shank back solid eyes, 6mm) I hope I helped! :D
Cloud Sheeps thank you so much! :)
Bellísimo , muchas gracias por compartir :)
De nada😊😊😊
Can you do a small one
I tried to make it but it didn't turn out well
How ironic, you are making a sheep out of wool.
Horse Lurver ^ - ^ tee hee good point
How is that ironic? It would make sense to make a sheep out of wool. Maybe coincidental
Athena Navarro ....
That is not irony
Kierra La Rose Athena Navarro How is that NOT ironic? Shaving sheep just to make another toy sheep? Not to mention most companies that produce animal products don't take care of their animals. Especially in Asia.
Just a tip, if you're a beginner and you're scared that you'll poke your fingers, which I have a lot, use band aids or a thimble.
Cloud Sheeps could u send me a needle for this i cant buy any and cant find any :( and i dont have money ;(
She's not just gonna send you a needle. Things cost money, ya know.
but im a poo... wait i do i have 100 dolla..... wait no i dont!
amazon, ebay, etsy
cant.... dont have a bank account and im a kid and my mom wont let mee get IT
+Sai Kaidos if you can't afford to buy it yourself and your mom doesn't want you to have one, you shouldn't be asking people from the Internet to give you one...that is called mooching and it is very very rude and shows poor taste
Omg it's adorable good video
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
I had no idea you could use stuffing!!!
Me neither! I thought you had to use wool.
it is very cute

This is magic DX how does piercing wool with a needle make a solid form DX
Rukine Tee hee it is pretty cool, but the needle is special (it has little barbs/grooves along the sides) allowing the wool to get tangled and therefore tighter!
it is the 2nd cutest sheep in the world! after the herd wick sheep
Did she forget the tail?OMG
+Dayana Liu Oooh I never realized that! Awk ^ - ^
is this whool generally expensive?
+Maria Gioia Faranda YES!!!!
Its simple I can do all work of needle
