SynopsisWhen 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.
