Needle felting tutorial - Mitten Christmas tree ornament

Today I made this little mitten Christmas tree ornament, using a cookie cutter as a mold.
This is a beginners tutorial and perfect for teaching kids how to needle felt. The cookie cutter adds a little bit of extra protection for your fingers
I am a self taught felter and have been hobby felting for about 15 years now.
Hope you find this tutorial helpful. If you have any questions please commet and I will try to respond as quickly as humanly possible.

    So why the different needles? Does it make the felting more felted as you go up ? I am having a brain fart- self taught! Thank you !

    They higher the gauge the finer the needle…so you could start with a 36 to bring it together and work your way up to a 40 for smoothing.
