Publisher's Synopsis
The once long, messy and laborious task of felting - or fulling - machine knitted fabric can now be carried out in one of the most common domestic appliances - a washing machine. All sorts of effects can be obtained by felting machine-knitted fabrics and Janet Nabney's guide shows what can be achieved by combining fabrics with different properties, using different stitch types, "manipulating" unfelted fabric by gathering, folding and tucking, using double or single bed fabric, or combing felted fabric with other types of material. Projects for ties, waistcoats, capes and tops complete this guide.
