Felting nowadays is becoming a fairly popular type of needlework. From the spun wool, the craftswomen manage to fel everything: souvenirs, toys, fabrics, felt boots, slippers, jewelry items and much more. Today I want to tell you about how you can make a beautiful, useful and original thing "Soap-washcloth". In order to start the manufacturing process, it is necessary to prepare the necessary materials and tools:
  • non-spun wool of different colors;
  • bar of soap;
  • felting needle;
  • hot water;
  • liquid soap;
  • film with pimples.
  • towel or napkins.

The materials are prepared and you can begin to work. First of all, we take a piece of soap and put it on a film.

Then from above we begin to lay pieces of spun wool.

You can do this in different colors, so that the washcloth is more fun and interesting. So lay out the first layer horizontally, the second vertically and alternate like that. We spread about 4 layers, then turn the soap over with the hair and start laying on the other side in the same way. We spread about 4 rows, too.

After that, we take a piece of soap in our hands and give the wool a soap shape. Those. we bend the ends of the wool, forming one continuous whole soap in the shell.
After that, we take the needle for filting and begin to gently poke the wool, but so as not to touch the soap.

Thus, we knock down the volume of wool and weave the fibers together. After the wool has settled down a little and mated, you can begin to roll around the soap. To do this, tear off a piece of wool and wrap soap with it. We do it carefully. So we wrap several layers.

Then again we take a needle for felting and we begin to respect the wool. After the wool has decreased in volume, we turn to wet felting. Pour hot water into a bowl and add a little liquid soap. Hot water softens the coat, while soap improves fiber adhesion. Then we take our soap, sprinkle it a little with hot soapy water and begin to gradually roll it in our hands, as if crushing wool.

We roll the soap until the hair settles a little.

After that, you can roll using a film with pimples. Just three of our soap from different sides about this film.

Because under the influence of water, the soap itself will be washed and create a soapy foam, then excess water or soap can be removed with a towel or napkins. You can also often wash the soap under running hot water.

Soap roll until the wool densely coats the soap and the top coat is well adhered to the remaining layers. We get this kind of soap.

Let it dry and our soap is ready to use. Also, you can pre-knit patterns, flowers, letters from wool and, in the process of felting, roll them to soap, thereby creating a unique masterpiece. Such soap will become an original gift for family and friends, and washing with this washcloth will become pleasant and comfortable.
