      Synopsis

      The fundamentals of felting including choosing fibers and colors, making flat felt and boiling felt, and stitching felt are demonstrated in 20 beautiful projects in a range of contemporary colors in this beginner's guide. Projects include a cloche hat, a child's jacket, slippers, delicate scarves, square and inlayed throw pillows, and a long-lasting rug. Each project is presented with simple step-by-step instructions, illustrations, and alternative samples and suggestions that help felters to create their own designs. Felters can bring this highly handcrafted style into their wardrobes and home decor with these simple and beautiful pieces.

      January 03, 2005: I picked up this book because it showed a simple method of making 3D usable objects with wool. The materials section could be more specific, ie nylon screen is used in felting but I had to search and search through dozens of OTHER books to figure out what this actually was! Incorporated with other how to felt books the projects in this one are worth attempting and attempting until you find your way.
