Felting is the latest trendy craft to hit the high street. Felted jewellery, bags, shoes and other accessories are making an impact on fashion as felt art is becoming the new crochet. Felt Style contains 35 stylish accessories including pretty bags, necklaces, bracelets, scarfs, slippers and hats, all using bright and beautiful felts, plus a comprehensive techniques section to get you felting in style. From a beanie hat to a baker's cap, flower evening bag to a fluffy stole, or a bright striped satchel to striking contemporary jewellery, Felt Style is full of felted accessories that will delight and inspire you. The two main methods of felting - wet fibre felting and felted knitting - are carefully explained, and each project has further steps showing you exactly how to make it.
