Hi how do you make your felted creatures so clean? I'll stab & stab & stab but I still have so many flyaways
Hi! Sorry for the delay answering, I didn’t see this message right away. Even the cleanest felted piece will still have a few stray fibers here and there, but the short answer is: keep stabbing! It takes ages. I felt my pieces REALLY hard, and that makes it easier to lock down stray hairs–they usually have about the same amount of resistance as squeezing a tennis ball when I’m done. But for fiber types that are extra flyaway-prone (alpaca comes to mind!) I do occasionally go over the surface with either an eyebrow trimmer or a small pair of scissors and trim those wild ends.
