Book review:I Heart Felt – 33 eye-popping projects for the inspired knitter

About the book

Felting is a simple process: take a knitted object--anything from a purse to a holiday stocking--douse it in water, subject it to serious agitation, and let it dry. The result is cozy, dense, and durable--and totally different from anything you've ever knitted before.

In the follow-up to her best-selling Knit One, Felt Too, noted knitting designer Kathleen Taylor reveals just how to felt colorful Fair Isle, delicate cables, and blended novelty yarns. Her hugely imaginative projects, including gorgeous cabled handbags, stylish beaded hats and adorable appliquéd mittens, come with easy-to-follow directions and go far beyond basic felting.

"I love I Heart Felt! A great handbook for first-time and experienced felters with basic and advanced techniques that are explained in Kathleen Taylor's fun, no-nonsense style--a wonderful addition to any knitter's bookshelf."
--Kay Gardiner, author, Mason Dixon Knitting
