Sleeping Kittens on a Cushion Wool Painting Needle Felting Kit by Charivna Mit V-38C

Paint Sleeping Kittens on a Cushion in wool with this wool painting kit by Charivna Mit: a black-and-white kitten and a white kitten curled up asleep together on a yellow cushion beside a ball of yarn.

Kittens sleep up to twenty hours a day, curled up together for warmth, and wool is the perfect material for capturing that soft, fluffy moment.

Why this kit: wool painting needs no drawing skills: the color pattern shows where each shade goes, so you lay thin wisps of wool like brushstrokes and the picture comes together in soft layers. 8 shades of wool give it real depth, so it is a relaxing project for a few evenings rather than an afternoon.

Kit includes: 8 colors of Corriedale wool, 4 colors of Anchor floss, 2 felting needles, a color pattern and an instruction chart. Made in Ukraine. Not included: a picture frame, a foam felting pad and small scissors.

How to felt it: start with the background, laying thin, even layers of wool over the base and felting them flat with light, straight jabs. Then add the middle ground, and finish with the raised details, rolling small tufts into fur, feathers and features before felting them in place. Finally, stitch the fine lines with the floss. Keep the needle upright so it does not snap, and store it safely after use.

Finished size: about 23×12.5 cm (9.1×5 in), frame not included. Hang it in a living room, bedroom or hallway, or frame it as a homemade gift for pet lovers, moms and friends. Recommended for ages 14 and up; the felting needles are very sharp, so keep them away from young children.
