Little Felted Dogs: Easy Projects for Making Adorable Pups by Saori Yamazaki

Needle felting is amazing to me.  When I had the opportunity to look at how they are created, I grabbed it.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.  It has been published, so you can get a copy now.

This starts with very basic information and instructions to get you on the right path.  I had no idea that the way they turn out had to do with a felting needle.  This needle has barbs on it and creates the texture by pulling bits of yarn up.

The author walks you through the beginning steps and then offers advanced steps if you want to be creative.  There are photos and written instructions both.  It's a very good learning tool.

There are twenty-four individual patterns for dogs.  They show how to accomplish melding the colors or adding long hair as well as give the pattern.

It's a very complete guide to miniature dogs.  Even if you've never made one before, this will help you accomplish it.

Like dogs?  Get the book and make a miniature!
