My tutorial requires simple and inexpensive parts you can get at any craft DIY stores or online stores.

For work you will need:

- white sliver;

- white and yellow fine wool for felting;

- 3 felting needles:

1 x triangular 36 gauge - (for initial shaping, and attaching pieces together)

1 x triangular 38 gauge - (for next stage shaping)

1 x triangular 40 gauge - (for adding small details)

- needles for fluffy chicken "reverse" number 40;

- black wire for beading with a diameter of 0.4 mm;

- yellow threads for embroidery (for wrapping paws);

- black beads / half beads for eyes with a diameter of 0.2 inches (0.5 cm);

- pliers for cutting and twisting wires;

- clay FIMO Soft or Professional sand color or white, beige and yellow;

- dry pastel of ginger colour;

- mat to use as a work surface. Choose from foam, burlap, or wool. Once you have a mat, it can be used for many projects (note that foam is the most economical but wears out the fastest).

A detailed list of tools is described in the tutorial.

Most of these tools you already have if you've been felted before.
