Felt Slipper Tutorial - Full Length, Thorough DIY Resist & Wet Felting How To w/ Feral Forest

This is my first pair of felted wool slippers, and I document the process from start to finish. I’ve made wool boots and shoes before, and plenty of wool bowls/baskets, so I can share expertise while also showing you what it can look like to make felted slippers for the first time. This video is long because it shows the whole process. I didn’t want to skip or gloss over steps that you might be unfamiliar with, and I didn’t want to just post photos - because I’ve found when teaching people to felt that seeing the hand movements involved can make a big difference. Hopefully you’ll agree, and will find this video helpful. I did, however, ’speed up’ repetitive steps after showing them the first time - that way you can get a sense for some of the hidden time that goes into making slippers that you don’t see in other guides, and can still see the motions and techniques used without watching a 4-hour video. There are other methods out there, and many other tools
