Feltmaking and Wool Magic by Jorie Johnson

Feltmaking and Wool Magic by Jorie Johnson

Feltmaking has been around for thousands of years, and it's easy to understand why: making felt is, as its core, a simple but exciting process. With more than 500 photographs and full-color illustrations, Feltmaking and Wool Magic explains the "whys" and "hows" of feltmaking as no other book does. Jorie Johnson will teach you what supplies and equipment you need to get started (many items can be found around the house); basic instructions for making your own felt; and how to combine those tools and techniques to make beautiful and unique projects such as boots, handbags, hats, vests, scarves, and carpets. The book also contains many projects which are suitable for children, including simple balls, a felt portrait, felt animals, pendants, and flowers. All the projects are accompanied by full-color, step-by-step photographs and instructions, making this truly foolproof felting.

Jorie Johnson is a textile artist and designer/owner of Joi Rae Textiles in Kyoto, Japan. She designs hand-felted bodywear, accessories, and home decorations, and her designs can be found in the collection of the Textile and Costume Department of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.
