Owners of smartphones with touch screens in winter feel discomfort, because their favorite gadget does not allow them to walk in warm woolen gloves. Fortunately, there are special gloves on sale that are designed for owners of smartphones with touch displays, but such gloves cost a lot of money. Fortunately, there is a budget solution to the problem, which we will consider right now.
First of all, we suggest watching the video, and then repeat the process yourself
What do we need:
- wool gloves;
- stylus fiber;
- a needle;
- paper napkins.
The second component may seem unprecedented, but this is a very common fiber, which can be purchased in almost any foreign online store. Having bought one pack of such fiber, you can make it in home several dozens of pairs of sensory gloves. When all the materials are ready, you can get to work. And we will fasten the fiber to the glove by the method of dry felting, so the needle should be selected specifically for this type of felting.
We take a piece of fiber and put it on a soft stand. The author of the video uses a piece of sponge. Then we take the needle and spread the fiber with the needle, giving it a flat oval shape.
There are two ways to attach fiber to woolen gloves. Consider the first one. To do this, take a paper towel, wrap it in a tube and put it in the glove instead of fingers.
We put the glove on the stand, take the fiber and just put it on the inside of the finger on the glove.
Next, take the needle and just stick the fiber between the threads of the glove. It is not difficult to do this, since the felting needles have a special design, so we just need to poke a needle. The napkin will become an obstacle and the fiber will not come out on the other side.
Now consider the second method, which is relatively easier, but only works with gloves of dark colors.
Take a glove and a small piece of fiber.
We put the glove on the stand, and the fiber directly on the inside of the finger of the glove.
We take the needle and start felting, periodically putting on the glove on the finger so that the fiber does not block the passage. This method is certainly easier, but when felting, individual strands of fiber come out from the other side.
