Felting is the hot new trend among knitters and crafters.
Felting, the process of working wool fibers together to form felt, is an ancient craft with a hip new resurgence. In knitted or crocheted felting, crafters knit or crochet an item and deliberately shrink it to create a strong, thick fabric. In needle felting, they use special needles to meld the fibers together, and in wet felting, they use water and soap to agitate raw wool into unique patterns and shapes. 'Not Your Mama’s Felting' will be the first book to cover all three types of felting. Readers will find approximately 30 projects to embellish themselves, their homes, and their friends, and each pattern offers variations so readers can truly make each piece their own.
