Synopsis
When heat, moisture, and pressure are applied to wool, its fibers bond together to create felt. This elemental phenomenon provides the basis for the craft of feltmaking, whose appealing simplicity is also reflected in its material requirements: Besides wool, water, and soap, you need a surface on which to agitate or "full" the wool, a sharp pair of scissors, and, if the project requires it, a pattern. The basic techniques have many applications, and are so easy that even a young child can master them. Using just four basic techniques, The Art of Feltmaking shows how to create a variety of felt projects. The book begins with an overview of the history of the craft, which is followed by a detailed survey of materials and tools. Each feltmaking techniquemaking felt ropes, felt beads, flat felt, and seamless feltis then demonstrated with step-by-step photographs and detailed instructions. By combining and varying these four methods, you can make these and many other projects: Jewelry: Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pins, barrettes, and buttons Wearables. Slippers, mittens, hats, and doll apparel Toys and Figures. Felt balls, simple rope-and-bead figures, poseable dolls, finger puppets, hand puppets, and stuffed toys. Vessels. Pouches, purses, and boxes. Masks. Eye masks, large masks, and masks with three-dimensional features. With The Art of Feltmaking as your guide, there are no limits to what youand your kidscan create with felt.

- w***r (621)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis seller is really a pro! My yarn arrived in absolutely pristine condition! It’s lovely and brand new and the pictures didn’t do it justice. This is a discontinued color and I was so glad to find it because I have a project it would look so perfect with but I shelved it since I didn’t have this “perfect color.” I had a question about one of the photos and this seller replied the next morning. The package was super-wrapped and mail the next day at a reasonable price.
