SETYOUR 4STRAPSASIDE. DO NOT SEW THEM ONTO THE BOOBS UNTIL AFTER YOU HAVE FELTED YOUR BOOBSTOTHEAPPROPRIATESIZENEEDED.
NOW IT IS TIME TO FELT UP YOUR BOOBS.
FJORD YARN FELTS UP QUICKLY. I LITERALLY CHECKED THEM EVERY 5 MINS. THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE FELTING PROCESS IS GOING TO DETERMINE YOUR CORRECT SIZE. When you are pleased with the sizing (shrinking boobies),it is time to kinda play with your boobs. Make sure to squeeze them thoroughly. (We don't want them drippy now, dowe?) Take your "boobs" and placed them over your boobs so that you can eyeball where to place your straps. When you are happy with strap placement, sew them securely onto the felted boobs. You can now wet felt the straps by hand with just a litle bit of warm/ hot water and some liquid soap. Time to needle felt the girs...with your roving wool, needle felting needle, and the color you have chosen for the areola, begin making a small circle right directly onto the felted boob. It is up to you to choose the size you would like for the areola. When that is done, it is now time to needle felt your nipples (ouch). Take the color for the nipple (contrasting color, if that is what you nipples look like - I used a lighter color for my nipple. It stands out better - pun intended.) To make the nipple you just make a tiny little bead like size ball with the roving wool. I just added the roving right onto the areola and then started to make it 3D and firm..it is kind-of like making a bobble, but out of roving wool.
SEW BOOBS TOGETHER.
After both boobs are knit, seam them together by placing a small portion of each boob's right side together and seam approximately an inch or two together.
DRUM ROLL PLEASE... TIME TO ADD THE NIPPLE RING. You can also add your own tattoos, preferably the pink logo for breast cancer, but anything is great. NOW PUT ON YOUR BOOBIES AND RUN AROUND THE HOUSE, POOL, STREETS AND ACT LIKE A CRAZY PER SON. ( Oh sorry, you don't have to do that. That is just what / did.) \*DISCLAIMER: If you chose to go in public wearing your "BOOBY TRAP" you are responsible for bailing yourself out of jail and all said fines that follow. Please be sure and have a camera or video camera with you at all times if you decide to do the above. We would love to see the reactions you get...
