AlterKnits Felt: Imaginative Projects for Knitting & Felting

i could hardly wait for this book to arrive and when it did it confirmed my suspicions-i am hooked. Can't wait to start on the wonderful Christmas 'Stockings', everything in this book is a pull on ones creative side, led by a master in creative ideas --you won't be sorry you bought Alterknits by Leigh Radford and the photography just enhances the 'Lure'

This book presents beautiful eye candy that inspires me to make, make, and make! Plus, the projects are fashionable, but with their own different twists. The projects range from purses and scarf-like creations to Christmas and home decorations. If I were looking for a felted/fulled objects book and had no prior knowledge of this book, this is the one I would go to first.

I haven't made anything from this book yet, but I just love the creativity. This is one of those books I like to go through just to get inspired. I bought another of the Alterknits books for the same reason and I like to support this kind of art. Highly recommend this book!

AlterKnits Felt is a standout book amongst other felting books - Leigh Radford has made her distinct mark in this fantastic book. Full of great explanations on what fibers do in the felting process, different processes are covered and of course, great!! projects ranging from small rings to larger totes. The instructions go further than your typical instructions - you're told why to do some steps so as to make your felted item better in the long run and they're accompanied by really clear diagrams. A highly recommended book, especially if you're a fan of One Skein or AlterKnits!
