It’s amazing that such simple materials—wool, soap, hot water—can result in fabric as infinitely varied in form and color as felt. The key is playful experimentation and this creative guide, which reveals exactly which wools to use, the effects of using hard versus soft water, and how to agitate the wool. Twenty colorful projects range from an inviting rug to a rolled Spiral Bracelet to slippers.
