Carnival of Feltmaking: Easy Techniques and 26 Colorful Projects for You and Your Home

By Jillian Harris, St. Martin’s Press

In this fanciful follow-up to her successful Complete Feltmaking, Harris provides an assortment of felt projects that evoke the colorful, fancy-free atmosphere of a carnival. You can create everything from accessories to home items, like a cowl-like scarf with a fabulous floral design, a tropical-inspired knitting needle case, a rose-trimmed evening bag, or an eight-panel lampshade filled with felted flowers and ribbons.

New to felt? No worries. This book contains an overview of equipment and materials, along with step-by-step breakdowns with detailed, close-up photographs of all the techniques featured, including wet felting, 3D felting, needle felting, fine cobweb felting, and more.

Harris’ exuberant personality shines through in her designs, and you won’t be able to stop yourself from wanting to create them.
