Book Synopsis
Your Go-To Guide To Start Crafting Awesome Needle Felting Object Pieces
Needle felting is essentially the process of sculpting with unspun wool, also known as roving. It's also known as 'dry felting, ' because it doesn't require any water or soap, compared to the more well-known 'wet felting, ' and all you need to get started with making awesome crafts is a felting needle to mesh the wool together. As you poke the needle, the barbs in the needle pull the wool strands together, firming it up as you shape it.
While felting is an old craft, needle felting in this form is pretty modern. Eleanor, a fiber artist from the United States, is the first person to adopt it. With the advent of craft blogging and Etsy in the early 2000s, the trend flourished and made its way to the United Kingdom and other parts of the world.
Needle felting is appealing because it is simple to learn, has a low entrance cost, and is portable. It is a wonderfully relaxing and anxiety-relieving craft. Then there's the pride of having created your first 'thing' - a genuinely spectacular experience!
