Playing with shapes and colours, felting is a sensual learning proces, where your hands and your mind must work together. The 'thorough guide' will take you gracefully through all the steps of the process, felting a hollow item, leading you to the end result: the richly coloured vessels. Your idea will be the starting point of the project, and in the process, you will get knowledge of the material and a good sense of the craft. Richly illustrated with photos and drawings.
