felt zoo-japanese craft book

Description

welcome to the zoo!

this book has lots of detailed and adorable animals to make using the technique of needle felting.

it includes lots of zoo animals, as well as some farmyard animals that maybe you can see at a petting zoo. 24 animals in all, and every one is cute.

the projects are: rabbit, lesser panda, prairie dog, red kangaroo, sheep, cat, donkey, white tiger, duck and ducklings, pig, hippopotamus, chipmunk, brown bear and cub, panda, african elephant, owl, paddybird, goat, frog, chimpanzee, giraffe, lion and cubs, brussels griffon, emperor penguin,

the titles of the projects are written in english but all other written instructions are in japanese. don't worry though, there are tons of step by step pictures and diagrams showing how to put the wee animals together using just a felting needle, and some sewing for details. this book also has line drawing diagrams showing the size and proportion of the parts and features. many of these projects use the technique of using a wire inside the limbs.

this is a great book for some who has already tried needlefelting and understands the basic method, especially felting around a wire armature. the photos alone are great inspiration for what you can create with needle felting.
