needlefelting

Needlefelting is a form of textile art that involves the use of a needle and wool roving to create three-dimensional shapes and figures. The process begins with a base material, such as felt or fabric, onto which the artist applies wool roving using a needle. The roving is manipulated to create various textures, patterns, and designs. The needle is used to push, pull, and shape the wool, allowing the artist to build up layers and create intricate details. Needlefelting can be used to create a wide range of objects, from simple shapes to complex figures, and is often used in crafting, jewelry making, and decorative arts. The technique requires skill and patience, as the artist must carefully control the needle and roving to achieve the desired result. Needlefelting is a versatile and creative art form that allows artists to express their imagination and create unique, handmade items.
