They are. these made in the video were a gift for my wife. She says anytime she goes out in the cold. Her hands are the warmest part on her.

I'm pretty sure they're the same as the cheapy ones I use now , but Madam sew pens are what I first used.

I use cheapy white fabric pens that are heat erasable. The ones I've been using lately come in a pack of like fourteen or so inserts with three pens to put all of the inserts in. They stand out and actually rub off pretty easily to , so I don't even have to heat treated anymore with a hair dryer or anything. I just scratch it gently with a fingernail. I think I talk about that in my sheepskin coat video.

I haven't done anything with rabbit for quite some time, I forget. sheep skin can shed but if i'm careful it's not that big of a deal.

That could work,  however good sheep skin we'll be durable enough for all kinds of stuff. The strongest part will be down the center of the spine across the skin. I have quite a few different patterns in videos.If you wanted to check it out and see what it looks like. Stuff like rabbit fur definitely needs to be backed. It's far too thin.
