Uniquely felt : dozens of techniques from fulling and shaping to nuno and cobweb : includes 46 creative projects / Christine White.

Summary:

The magic of felt. The possibilities in a loose pile of wool fibers are endless. Add water and a little soap and you will be amazed at the ease with which you can creat a pretty picnic blanket or simple placemats. Get to know the properties of the wool better and you can coax it into a seamless pillow cover or handbag. Apply nuno or cobwebbing techniques to create fabulous scarves, shawls, and curtains. Uniquely Fetl is the ultimate guide for every crafter drawn to the magical interplay of wool, water, and human hands. Christine White describes the equipment, explores the concepts and theories of felting, and thoroughly explains all the techniques-traditional, needle, 3-D seamless, nuno, cobweb, carved, and Beedle ball. Forty-eight fabulous projects offer something for every fiber artist.
