1. Introduction: My name is Barb. I'm
founder of happy mood art. And simply as a person
who loves to create different things
with my own hands. I've been into handicrafts. Actually since my childhood. I always remember
creating different teams. I have experience
in suing knitting, culture and any other
interesting stuff, watts, you're just can
imagine to create. I believe, that the things
and accessories which surround us can make
us more happier. And if it's made by ourselves, that happiness is even greater. Hope you will have a
great experience by learning from me
and finding out how easy actually to make the front nice and cool
things with your own hands. Today I will show you
how to make cozy, elegant and soft pad bed so
that your cat or dog gonna enjoy it and love
it so much that we all like to sleep
there all the time. As a way, my cat is laying
down in one of such a beds. You can see in the
fix-up of his really using it. Pretty much.
2. What is merino wool: Merino wool is a natural
fiber gone by Merino sheep. It has different great benefits, such as its center and
softer than a regular vote. It has anti-static properties. It contains land oil, oil what debtors mites, and protects against
fungal spores, helps regulate body temperature. It helps to keep you warm
when you are called. Same time as Metro
is permissible. It prevents overheating
if you are warm or a day, it has self-cleaning capacity. Merino wool is considered
as a self-test and best quality wool
fibers are super fine. So that's a trap, more heat. It is often used by luxury, appear because of the comfort, what it can provide. Chunky Merino wool,
what we will use for making our pet bed
is a special rule, which is not Spaniard
as a usual yarn. Often it's knitted
just by your hands. There especially big needles. What you could use. Making different projects
from chunky Merino wool. But in our project
we're going to use, and they just, with our hands. Chunky marine oval often
is use it to create elegant interior
elements such as cushions, blankets,
carpets, etc. Even hats, scarves. Sweaters can be made
from this full. Also paid beds as we go on
to make one today as well. So those are not
just friendly, soft, and cozy for use, but also brings
extra elegant look and element into your house.
3. Necessary materials: To make a pet birds, you will need 1 kg of
chunky Marie novel. Here is mine. This is 1 kg of Merino wool, chunky marine or both. This is how it looks. See, it's really, really soft
and it's nice to touch it. So yeah, that's how it looks. There's different sizes
of dipole in the market. This particular one
is four to 5 cm fake, or they also divided
into microns, the thickness of the walls, CCS, 25 microns thick volts. So look for such a one to accomplish this
project as planet. Final size of the
pet bird will be approximately 45 to 42 cm and the effect will be about
12:13 centimeters. It's the final size
of the pet bird, can vary a little. Here. They're just because
of its very depends how tattoo will pull your
loops while knitting. I'm usually trying
to keep them pretty big and not to tighten
them too much. But you will see in
following videos how exactly I am doing it. Once you have your yarn. And we can start to make a pet. But now any other things is necessary to accomplish
this project. Because as I mentioned before, we're gonna use our arms
for creating this bed bed. It's time to get started. Let's do it together.
4. Preparation of the wool: Sounds, this is our chunky
Merino wool for our project, for our pet bet. It's pretty thick. So to prepare it correctly and that it's easier
to work with it. We should open it. So let's do it like
say late and open, but don't press it to
heart based of it. Let's late. Lights up and say last steps. Yeah. So almost there. Last very last one. So yeah, here we are. So but remember, don't
pull it too hard because this one seems
pretty strong one, but if you pull it too hard, it can park like say so we
don't want us at it happen. So that's why we did this
preparation as well. So this is our goal and we are ready to start our project.
5. Knitting of the braid: So this is our yarn. Don't worry if it's specific
laws in some places, just take it close to the other yarn and
Harrison will be fine. So we're going to start
to make our first loop. Take say, yarn over tail domain and says This
part is the upper part. Now with the fingers, try to catch say, longest yarn and
take it through. Tighten the loop
like saves bullets. Pretty hard but not too
hard not to break the yarn. And with seaside adjusts, so low size, I'm keeping the
loop size about like say, it's approximately plus -6 cm. And again with the
fingers thick, say arms through the next loop. And we have another loop done. Can we go for the next one? Now we have already next Friday. And then next one. And next one. It's pretty easy. Let's check. 12345 loops way down and it
is ready for our next steps.
6. Pet bed base 1st row: Let's continue with
making our first row. Let's go in here. Take again with the fingers
to make a nice slow. Here we go. We have
two loops now. The next one just
beside like saves. The next one just beside 1234. And the last 112345.
7. Pet bed base 2nd row: So we are into our second line. Now we're going to start
to twist this first loop. And we do exactly the same
as we did doing first-line. So just taking the arms
through every loop we have. So totally we have five loops. And each of those we
take here through. Our second line is done.
8. Pet bed base row 3-6: So now we are following
voice and next rows. This is the third row and we starting tonight with
the first slope, as we did in the
line number two. So taking the yarn through
every loop as you did before, it goes really quick. Say we have already
one row down again. We still have five loops
and we get back again. And following ways, our force arrow all the way to say right? Yeah, take it again. Always a finger softly pool
throws a loop and it's done, and we get to another one. And the row is done again. We have to do it one more time. To the left and then
back to the right. So two more lines
to do in this way. Go through every loop
again and again. So the line is done. Dow, see how nice it looks. Nice and soft. And we get our six. Again. Knitting or pooling yarns to each of our low,
totally five lobes. You have to have, we still have 512345
lobes here on the side, you should have also
five loops with the ball in spite of alienated
six on the side that shows like 54 lobes. And this is what we have now.
9. Pet bed base finishing: So now we have to close these loops by
knitting them together. So craps at first slope and take another one on your fingers. And now we're going to pull
the yarn through both of say, slopes like so and that's n. We have one
loop in our hands. Again. Don't twist it. Just use it naturally
how it goes. And again, we take
the second loop and we pull the yarn
through boss of our loops. And then next one, same and last one week crap and methods to
gather like safe there. And that's what we have. Our base is done.
10. Building the sides: So here we are. Now we are ready to start to
build sides of our pet bet. We're going to start to
work just right here. Where is our first free low? So check it. It's just tried here. So we're going to pull the yarn through that
loop, like space. Now we have two loops
on our hand and we pull the yarn through
those two lobes again. And we just followed by the
next free low ponds aside, we pull the yarn
through that low. One mourns and X. And we have two
loops on our hand. We pull the arms
through and like set. We go on to continue
until we get to yields that corner of our
pet vet just on the corner. So that one we will not
go through but we will take that one. We don't touch. So we take just here in
the middle of say corner, there is empty space. We're going to take the
yarn through that hole in the same way as
we did just before. So two loops, yarn. So two loops. And we are on Second side and we continue
as we did on the first side. Again, on the next tree
lobe fate, take the arms, screw them together, and
follow way, say next ones. Just as on the first side. And the next three low, two loops on the hand and yarn. Pull the yarn through
those two loops. We are on the corner again. And here is one very loose loop, but that's why we
will take it to be, take it a bit lower down that we have thicker yarn
work to go around. So but we do the same action like take the arms
through there, and we'll let suppose
those two loops and we are on the third side. They're just checks
that you take the outside of the project
and take the yarn. So Cisco to exactly
the same as the first. Take together and pool
your arms to loops. And again, nice round
corner we have now. And then next one. Same action. We are almost done
with this one. Next to low. We are on the corner again. Now. Again, choose a bit sicker. Are two arms on the side and then that whole
takes the arms through. Now we have done three sides. Offset path, but we are
getting to the force one here. We will do it a bit differently. We will name, takes the
arms through the exams, through the braid hand, and then take the arms
through that loop.
11. Continuing with the sides: So here we go with continuing building our
sides for the pet, pet. The difference now
will be that we are taking the yarn
through whole braid, as you see doing me here. So put the fingers
through the braid, pull the arms through like this. You just continue all around your bed bed until
the yarn will finish. So I will play the video
a bit quicker now, because you basically
continue doing exactly the same action
until the ER. Finishing. So our yard nice finishing soon. So soon we are doing
our last loop here. When you do last
loop, take the yarn, scroll the whole right, and pull it fully. Just like say, no, it's done. So here we are. In the next video, I will show you how to tighten
and had say, rest of yarn. Let's get to say last step.
12. Tightening the yarn: In this video, we're going
to tighten the yarn, which is our beginning and
ending of the bed, bed. So we're going to
do it this way. 22 sides like this, and try to find the
closest loop where you can take through
one of say, parts yarn. And here we're going
to make one nodal. Make it strong, but
don't pull it too hard. Then we start to hide in the
texture of hops that bed. Rest of the ER. Just tried to find
the places that it looks nice from all sides. Stale data, it's not
so visible or hidden. And actually it's not so
hard to do is that two, As as civil is pretty thick and then knitted
places are realistic. You can just hide it
in the middle there. The same we do with
another side of the ER. So I will hide it here, e.g. and let's see where I
can take say a yarn Joss here beside this done. And now we we have to
do a similar ways. Other yarn, as it's pretty tall, I will cut part of it. We don't we don't have to
hide so much Rob say arms, so as it looks pretty okay. So we've gone apart
it to two parts. Again. Now, I will make an
Aldo just right here. And we'll try to hide the yarn as we just did it on the
upper part of the bed. Just by trying to follow, say, knitted texture of the bed and high date properly is
that it's not visible. So this last piece, last piece we're going
to take e.g. here. See, it's almost
not visible at all. So somewhere here. Like say, then it's almost done. Just so lost base. Let me take it here. So our bed is done. Let's finish with
congratulation. Hope your pets will
have a nice time. They're soft and nice, and hope you like it. To create this
packed bed with me. We'll be happy to
see you in some of my next classes. See you. Bye-bye.
13. How to take care of the pet bed: You don't have to take a special daily care
of that pet bird. As I mentioned before, say, chunky Merino wool is
natural material as it has anti-static and
self-cleaning capacity, it doesn't attract
and collects dust. And for so much as e.g. synthetic materials. So you first fall, you'll not going to need
to clean it as often as you used to clean the
other synthetic metro beds. But once there is time
to clean the pedal, but you should use, just said try cleaning because I chunky Marina
Vo is not Spaniard. It has tendency. Peeling or shedding. Time by time ceases or
reason by Rayleigh, remember to do dry
cleaning only. Sometimes you can take
it simply all doors for awhile just to give
it a good ventilation. Otherwise, let your
pet enjoy the bed. And to have a nice
and cozy time, they're having a nice time. You too See you in
other projects.
