I am starting to make my first pair of felt boots. Why not sew on a 8 ounce vegetable leather midsole and the cement on a vibram outsole? Easy to resole. Also use Southern Leather Company as a supply source. Good idea? Thanks

Why not use screw on grommets available from aliexpress or ebay?

I read that the scapular must be made with woven wool, not felted wool so it resembles the garment of the Carmelites.

The curve edge and line of holes for edging were done as part of pillow case kits. I have a similar unfinished one from my Grandmother. I finished the embroidery first and need to do the edge.

After the boots are complete, could you add needle felted designs? I wanted to recreate a pair of boots my mom had when she was younger, but got lost over the years
@ChristiDea Жыл бұрын
It's near impossible to have needle felted designs adhere to fully felted wool. If you want to add needle felted designs you need to partially felt the wool, needle felt in the design and then finish the felting with the standard wet felting techniques. On another note. I did see a fantastic Russian technique used to make intricate designs on felted boots. The artist layed a patterned scarf on top of the prefelt and used it as a guide to needle felt the exact design of the scarf onto the boots. This is how some of those great Eastern European Felt boots are made.

Thanks for letting me know! I'll do a little more research to see if that's something I can accomplish, but I may just have to stick with plain felted boots

Thanks for showing us the problems that can happen along the way with plying! You never see that in videos, so you tend to think that it should all go smoothly and be easy from the start! One question that I have though-I have smaller bobbins so they fill up quickly. How do I make a continuous skein of say 200 yards? I just don’t get that part😬
@ChristiDea Жыл бұрын
to do a really large skein you need to be able to start on a jumbo bobbin. I suppose if push came to shove you could probably join the yarn using a spindle, but I've never tried it myself just because I have the jumbo bobbins

I've been taking a break too, learning to graft fruit trees and improve my gardening skills. I have found KZbin pretty useful in jogging my own memory! I once made a video on how to connect a lithium battery to my husband's cpap machine and I later found I had to go back and check my own library just to remember how I did it! Not sure if you have the tech to download videos, but you are most welcome to download anything you have here and save it for the future

How much is a roll of that leather
@ChristiDea Жыл бұрын
Oh goodness, I can't recall. I bought it a few years ago, but I believe it was under $100 for sure. I get a military discount from the leather store, so that helps. There are different grades of shoe leather. The longer it is cured the harder it is and more expensive it is. You could make so much stuff from all that lealther. It's basically one entire hide

I'm using an Ashford Joy 2 and the yarn is just coiling up inside the eye it threads through rather than uptaking onto the bobbin! Can you help me understand why and help me fix that? I've tried all tension settings and pre-drafting the wool, I'm treadling slow, I just can't figure it out

Great idea to use the drain board of the sink as a washboard. My stainless steel sink has hard ridges just like on a washboard. More modern ones tend to have very widely spaced channels. Glad I kept my old sink.

I am so glad that you showed these problems as they are what I have had!! I am new to spinning. My Ashford Traditional wheel only cost me £25 but the treadle kept coming off so I have made a 'fix'. It can spin without problems but then if I change the bobbin it will not spin properly. Often refitting the bobbin is the solution. Watching this I realised that I need to oil it more often but probably don't need to get another wheel.

Looks like the 16oz veg tan I've got. Was labelled as "shield" leather hahaha, I made a couple vambraces out of it and it was a real pain to work with. The stuff is great though, those vambraces would probably stop a knife or even machete hit with how tough and thick they are.

I think I had to use a combination of a leather awl, a nail, a mallet and a wood board to punch the holes for stitching and lacing on mine. Think I soaked it for the bigger holes as well.
