Felt New Directions for an Ancient Craft

If you could only have one book on how to make felt, it would have to be this one.

The Number 1 Felting Book

If you can buy only one book about felting, make it this one. It is clear, complete, and inspiring for the beginner and advanced felter. It has great pictures and explanations. Individual and group projects are photographed. Gallery photos of art felt are included. There have been many lovely, wonderful books on felting published since this one, but this is still the best. (Many, many thanks to Pat Spark for translating it into English!)

Inspirational and informational

This is the best book on felting I have seen. It combines historical information with excellent technical advise. The examples of felt projects are fun and useful. If you are going to get one book on felting, this is it!
