Book Description

This book is an essential guide for anyone interested in the popular craft of needle felting.

Written by two authors, experienced in making and teaching crafts to students of all ages and abilities, instructions are easy to follow and include practical yet creative ideas to fix common mistakes. Projects arise from a genuine love of the natural world and animals, whether they be family pets (‘Our Friend Dexter’) or wild animals. Requiring no experience other than an interest in working and playing with wool, projects progressively build on skills throughout, and will transform you into an avid needle felter in no time at all.
