I have only done a little needle felting, myself, but I really want to know more about it!
My needle felting friend, Michelle, recommends two books to get started on felting cute little animals for all the kids and adults who love warm fuzzies (that’s everyone, right?) on your holiday gift list. They make great stocking stuffers and gift toppers and are, by all accounts, surprisingly addictive to make!
Little Felted Animals by Marie-Noele Hovrath gives you simple step-by-step instructions to create 16 adorable felted pets.
At less than $10, it’s a bargain to get for your own crafting library or to supplement a crafty friend’s knowledge base. How cute is that little cat on the cover? Me-ow!,
If that isn’t enough, Wool Pets by Larie Sharp is chock full of even more quick, fun and easy animals to add to your felt menagerie.
Just imagine a festive flotilla of jaunty wool penguins on your holiday table! They can be yours by just following the simple and straightforward instructions in this beautifully illustrated book!
I know I’m going to grab these books today and settle in for some cozy evenings of punching together some lovely wool into a passel of adorable companions for me and all my friends! Maybe I can even talk Michelle into a felting date with me!
As with all crafting, needle felting animals is even more fun when it’s shared!
