Olivia of OilArt has this adorable video tutorial on how to use and up cycle and old wool sweater. I like the videos because you can watch step-by-step how the project is accomplished. Olivia is a very young lady and seems to be able to teach us adults how to recycle wool sweaters, needle felting, construct the mittens and finished them off. Olivia shows you how to felt your wool sweater and how to divide the sweater and how to cut out your mitten shapes. She is a precocious adorable little girl that appears to know a lot about felting. I have done a couple of Olivia’s tutorials in the past but I thought this was one I had not seen and you might enjoy a watching and trying Olivia’s lovely orange mitten tutorial. You can find this video on YouTube. Thanks Olivia for your awesome videos and wonderful talent.
