The art of felting, the process of working wool fibers together to form
felt, is the ultimate in craft creativity because no two items turn out
exactly alike. The first book to cover knitted or crocheted felting,
needle felting, and wet felting, Not Your Mama's Felting will have you
creating fashions, accessories, and gifts that will have your
non-felting friends asking, "How did you do that?"
Fun and funky, this guide includes:
- The essentials: all about fiber, the tools of the trade, wet felting,
needle felting, fulling, and dyeing
- Patterns and step-by-step instructions for approximately thirty
projects, including an assemble-your-own wallet kit, a bad-boy hoodie,
a loopy boa, a chunky bead necklace, needle vases, and more
- Tips to customize each design
- Basic knitting and crocheting instructions so that even
non-needleworkers can make all of the projects
Does the smell of wet sheep turn you on? Long to escape to your own
private yurt? With Not Your Mama's Felting, you'll be a felt-loving
material girl in no time.
