The video is great. I wish I could get rid of my "cracks" that easily. I have tried felting a thin layer over them and that seems to work.
It's a little hard to hear you, but I keep "re-winding" and trying to listen again.
Yours are all so even!
Thanks!

Oh my word! This is such a lovey video! Your accent, the balls, the tea pot and birds chirping in the background, lol! So adorable and I can't wait to make a million felt balls to do some fun crafty thing :)

Hi. Thanks for your help. I went to a farm the other day. It was an open day and one of the activities was making felt balls! It's so simple and fun! Wanna make some more : )

Luckily for me, felting is not a precision art! I use about half a bottle of water and a small squirt of soap - so that would be about 1/3 - 1/2 pint water and 1/2 teaspoon of soap. You could also just rub a bar of soap on your hands, it's only to help the fibres move around a little more to give them a chance to find another strand to stick to.
You'll know when there is too much soap as you'll get foam!

Hi. Excuse my ignorance but precisely what 'fibres' are you using??

@westinmiyako These are dyed merino tops. Merino is a great wool for felting as it is soft, has a good length of staple (fibre) and felts quickly.
