Needle-Felted Shih Tzu

These are not real dogs!


Needle felting (or dry felting) is an ancient art. A specially manufactured, very sharp, barbed felting needle is used by hand to repeatedly push fibres (usually wool) together, entangling them to form either flat or three-dimensional shaped forms.

Needle-Felted Shih Tzu - Lochie

Lochie was my first attempt at needle-felting. He was named after the famous Loch Ness Monster due to the fact that his hairless form had a long, skinny neck with a blob of a head on top, reminding me of "Nessie".

Lochie has a wire armature so he is fully poseable. He is felted from pure Merino wool and has a sculpted poly-clay nose.
