【羊毛造形】制作過程の一部（短毛種）/ Part of the process（羊毛フェルト）

This movie shows a part of the process making a short haired dog (miniature pincher )from wool. Using merino wool, which is very soft and has the fibers all laying in the same direction, felting a small bunch of wool by using a special needle. By poking in the center of the bunch and by repeating this action the wool begins to stand up. By repeating this over and over, the piece becomes covered in fur. Careful cutting to make the fur smooth is then done. This is very labor-intensive. 短毛種(ミニチュアピンシャー)の制作風景、植毛工程の一部をご紹介しています。 メリノウールの短い束を少しずつ並べ真ん中を刺す作業を繰り返し丁寧に植毛します。その後綺麗にハサミでカットして整え美しい短毛に仕上げていきます。 Movie and Edit by Takehiro Kawamura 映像/編集　川村　剛弘 ******* My name is Terumi Ohta (TrueStyleLab. ) a master wool sculpture artist.
