Crazy vul performance technique. Masterpieces in crazy wool technique

Each needlewoman in due time comes to the desire for experiments. Crazy-vul ideas allow you to express your inspiration. This fairly new technique is gaining more and more popularity due to its originality and eccentricity.

We study the popular crazy-vul technique: ideas for all occasions

Crazy Wool technique literally translates as "crazy thread". The name itself conveys the whole message of the products made in this technique. According to the principle of technology, it is a bit like felting. Not a single person is able to calmly and indifferently pass by things crazy vul.

The technique is used both to create interior elements, such as pillows, and to create accessories and clothes. All things carry the dynamism and boldness of color, texture and other combinations. At first glance, it may seem that the product is made carelessly, but this impression is very deceptive, because when laying out the craftswoman, every detail, every stroke is thought through. Many hours of work are spent on one thing and a lot of work is invested.

There are two ways to create things using the Crazy Wool technique: the first method is using wallpaper glue and a dense film, the second is without glue, water-soluble interlining is used instead. The principle of operation is the same in both cases.

Consider a master class on making a product using non-woven fabric. It is required to cut two pieces of interlining of the desired size. Then cut pieces of yarn, lurex, cord, braid and other decorative elements. Threads can be selected in one key, or you can play in contrast. Next, you need to sprinkle the base with a fixative, it can be a special temporary fixation spray, or you can take the most common hairspray. Both are equally good.

After that, we begin to lay the yarn on the base. After the first layer of yarn, you can add decorating elements, then switch back to threads. So we alternate until the color solution is completely satisfied, and the filling density should also be taken into account. You can create a very delicate and airy thing, or you can fill it in such a way that you get a full-fledged warm fabric in the end.

When all the planned elements are placed on the base, you need to sprinkle all the work again with a fixing agent and cover with a second layer of interlining. The fixing agent acts as a light adhesive, so you need to connect the parts quickly enough.

The resulting workpiece must be carefully stitched on a sewing machine, the direction of movement should be from edge to edge. It can be straight lines or zigzag, form rhombuses or squares. Silk threads are best suited for this work. During operation, the machine must be monitored so that the film does not move. When the density of the stitches allows the canvas to be integral, the work is lowered into a basin with warm water until the interlining is completely dissolved. You can speed up this process if you act on the canvas by friction and wrinkling. After dissolution, you should additionally rinse the product, wring it out and dry it flat on a towel.

For beginner needlewomen in this technique, it is recommended to practice on small details, for example, to make a motif or a cover for a notebook. For the cover, you need to lay out all the elements on the fabric, which will be the basis of the entire product.

Crazy Wool plus felting.

Not everyone likes to work with a typewriter. The technique under consideration allows you to fasten the yarn not only in this way. You can use the felting technique and supplement the spread yarn with unspun merino.

On a pimply film, we lay out the threads in a spiral, after the first layer, you need to sprinkle all the work with thin strands of wool for felting. The next layer of yarn is laid out in the transverse direction and also sprinkled with merino. Further work can be continued with viscose fibers, spreading them over the entire area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe product. And supplement with decorative fibers, for example, linen.

Continue work by spraying with soapy water. It is better to do this from a spray gun from a distance of about a meter, so as not to blow off the fibers from the layout. It is required to soak the product well, so at least half a liter of liquid must be gradually poured onto the wool. After that, the work is covered with a film and continues in the wet felting technique, creating a load on the product by friction and compression, you can also use the contrast of the water in which the rinsing will take place.

After drying, the work will delight the owner, as well as inspire others. The result can be seen in the photo:

As a result, we can say that the considered technique is not afraid of bold incarnations, it is quite easy to learn, the materials required are not expensive. Often, crazy wool elements decorate sewn or knitted products, this allows you to add a “zest”.

Your attention is a selection of lessons on the considered technique of crazy vul, from which you can draw interesting points for your inspiration.

The history of the scarf goes back over two thousand years. For the first time, a scarf appeared in ancient China for practical purposes - to protect yourself from cold and wind. It was made from wool, silk and lace and other materials. Today it is both part of the wardrobe in cold weather, and an accessory in warm weather, and even as jewelry. Everyone wears scarves: from a small child to an elderly person, so many designers, stylists, and even ordinary people try to put on this wonderful piece of clothing in an original way. Every girl dreams of an original thing that matches her style. To make a thing or, for example, earrings, a skirt, a coat, be unique in her wardrobe. There is such an opportunity - to make it with your own hands at the lowest monetary cost. I suggest you make it from threads and chiffon using the Crazy-vul technique (that is, crazy thread). The peculiarity and advantage of such a scarf is originality, ease of execution and low cost. Nobody will have a scarf like this. And even if someone does something similar, it will still turn out in their own way, in a different way.
So let's get started!

30 cm of chiffon fabric in each color (pink, white and grey),
- sewing threads (white, gray pink, shades of gray and pink),
-paper towels,
- Lurex threads of silver color,
- sewing machine,
- needle,
-scissors,
-Crochet hook,
-pins,
- tailor's crayons.

Progress
1. We unwind the paper towel along the length of the desired scarf. If there is not enough width, then unwind the same length and fasten the edges with needles. This is the foundation. You can use interlining if you don’t want paper towels, but interlining is many times more expensive and less soluble in water, besides, it’s harder to find, because you need a special water-soluble interlining for fabrics. Namely, because of the good solubility in water and the budget, I chose it and advise you.

2. On chiffon we draw droplets in the form of a peacock feather 8-10 cm long, cut out these pieces. From 30 cm of each color, about 30 - 25 pieces should come out. In total, somewhere around 90 drops should work.

3. We pin droplets with needles over the entire area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe desired scarf or we bast on the base with a thread. I basted on towels. It's convenient for anyone. It must be said that the droplets need to be distributed evenly over the entire surface and make sure that there are not many of the same color nearby, or there is no such thing that the droplets lie somewhere densely, and somewhere thinly.

4. We sew lines on the sewing machine from one droplet to another all over the scarf, first in one color - pink. This work is long, but the result is worth it. With a machine stitch, be sure to go for a drop, as shown in the Photo, otherwise the whole product will fall apart after washing, because the droplets will not be sewn together, Then in other colors - gray, pink and white.


So over the entire area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe scarf.
5. You can stitch the “veins” at the droplets with Lurex, or you can simply sew over the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe scarf.

6. We soak the whole thing in warm water without powder and gently erase it so that the paper dissolves. Remove the paper from the scarf.

7. Then dry and iron.

8. We look - there is no paper, only the "cobweb" remains.
9. In order for the scarf to look neat, we will crochet the edges, but you can just hem them neatly. I tied the edge of the scarf with threads, with which I sewed the space between the drops. I connected several colors into one thread and first tied ordinary air loops along the edge. grabbing the edges of the scarf. Thus, it turned out just a neat edge. Next, I tied a scarf with double crochets for beauty. It turned out great!

Sequence of work

To get a working canvas, you need to take knitting threads. These can be trimmings or remnants of threads of different thicknesses and textures. Scraps of fabric are suitable, which in the course of work can be knitted into a pattern. Pieces of wool for felting, threads for sewing will be suitable.

You will also need the following materials:

  • Water-soluble stabilizer for embroidery;
  • Spray fixative.

Stabilizer is a translucent fabric that can be purchased at embroidery stores. You will also need a sewing machine. For beginners, you can create an openwork scarf.


  • Lay out the piece of stabilizer according to the size of the product that you plan to make. If the product is complex, then the stabilizer must be cut according to the pattern.
  • Then a fixative should be sprayed onto the surface of the stabilizer.
  • To create a pattern on the stabilizer, you need to lay out the threads. In the first layer, the threads are laid out in a chaotic manner.
  • The second layer of threads is also laid out randomly. If you would like to draw. Then already in the second layer, start laying out its outlines with threads of the color you need.
  • The third and all other layers are laid out in accordance with the selected pattern. Here you should already maintain the selected color. How many layers of thread will be required? It all depends on the complexity of the image. For a simple openwork scarf, you will have to apply only 5 layers of threads.
  • So, you have already laid out the required drawing, now fix it with a fixative or hairspray. After that, cover the product with another layer of stabilizer on top.
  • Stitch the resulting fabric on a typewriter in any direction. Make the distance between the seams no more than 2 cm, and if the ornament is small, then 1.5 cm or even less.
  • Dip the stitched product in warm water to dissolve the stabilizer.
  • Wait until the product is completely dry, only then crochet the edges or process with a suitable braid.

The crazy wool style is not only used to create clothes. It is perfect for making accessories of rare beauty. Graceful handbags or gloves will not allow you to go unnoticed. Try making pillows for a sofa or tablecloth, you will immediately notice how your room has come alive.

Today, all creative people will certainly consider how to make an unusual accessory or decor item, because the possibilities of crazy vulture have no limits!

Today we will tell you how to make an openwork scarf using the Crazy Wool technique. This is a scheme that, having mastered it, you can move on on your own, exalting your vision, combining crazy wool with other needlework. This, in fact, is a man-made fabric from which you can sew everything that your fantasy tells you.

1. This is the scarf we should end up with. But you can take threads of other colors and your own pattern, and using this technique, create your own exclusive autumn scarf.

So, let's begin!

2. The scarf is based on a pattern of butterflies. In order to realize this idea, you need to draw a future pattern on an A4 sheet, and then transfer it to a sheet of water-soluble paper (it is also a stabilizer). In this master class, ordinary tracing paper was used for the base, since the stabilizer of the required size was not at hand. Please note: the pattern must be transferred to a water-soluble sheet or tracing paper on both sides.

3. The material for creating a scarf are knitting threads. You can also use leftovers: even threads of different thicknesses and completely different textures will do. Also, for such work, wool for felting, shreds of fabric (they can be woven into a pattern) and threads for sewing to match the product can be useful. We begin to lay out a woolen thread along the marked lines. In order to lay out such intricate patterns, use PVA glue to glue the thread along the contour and among themselves. Then we fall asleep the pattern itself with white threads. We fix each new layer with glue from a spray can, but you can replace it with ordinary hairspray.

4. For this scarf, white threads of two types were used: cotton and wool mixture. As well as orange, yellow, beige and black wool.

5. If your workplace is shorter than the future scarf, then the work becomes a little more complicated. Whoever has a larger table or a smaller scarf, you can safely proceed to step 7. Cover the layers of threads on top with a layer of stabilizer. Who does not know - this is such a water-soluble paper. You can easily find it at any craft store.

6. Then start basting gently. Please note that we do not make knots at the end of the thread. Wrap the finished edge and continue to do the same steps along the entire length of the future product.

7. After the pattern is laid out along the entire length, fix it with a layer of stabilizer, carefully tacking water-soluble paper along the entire length of the future product.

8. Now we move on to the process of sewing on a sewing machine. It is necessary to stitch the entire product along and across. The result should be squares of about 1 cm by 1 cm. It is advisable not to skimp and do not make squares larger than 1.5 cm! Threads are best taken in a neutral color.

9. The next and easiest step after stitching the fabric on a sewing machine is, of course, removing the stabilizer if it was used on both sides. If on the one hand, as in this master class, there was a layer of tracing paper, then you need to remove it manually. Dip an almost finished scarf into warm water (30 ° C) and rinse the future product until the stabilizer dissolves. Then dry it.

10. You can also add brushes to the scarf.

11. Here is the finished scarf. Such a product looks beautiful, stylish and attracts the attention of others, and also gives the owner of the scarf a sense of exclusivity. Plus, it's incredibly warm. The size of the scarf with tassels turned out: 30 by 170 cm, but you can make this according to your preferences.

How do you like this stylish and practical find for autumn? In addition, using this technique, you can also create other warm things for the fall. For example, a stole or even a coat.
