Craft designer Wallis starts with equipment and safety and provides fun, simple projects that are illustrated with step-by-step color photographs and appropriate for crafters making their first attempts at needle felting. The general focus in most needle felting books is creating something cute (yet complex and detailed), so it's good to see a simpler approach for beginners.
