From nomads' tents to poodle skirts, from car parts to Christmas
tree ornaments, felt is one of the world's oldest and most
understated textiles. Felt has developed simultaneously in multiple
cultures, and often its origins are lost. However, far from having
been supplanted by new fabrics, not only has felt retained its
traditional uses among peoples around the world, but it has also
seen a revival of popularity among today's hand feltmakers,
craftspeople and fashion designers. This book follows the journey
of felt through time, space, and purpose by pulling into focus a
series of snapshots of different felting traditions. Beautifully
illustrated, "Felt" covers the wide-ranging history and development
of this most unassuming, yet ubiquitous, of fabrics from the
earliest archaeological evidence in the mountains of Siberia to the
groundbreaking works of contemporary fiber arts and sculptors.
