It's amazing what you can create with a needle and some wool. I love needle felting but I'm still a beginner. I love books like this that teach you everything you need to know to create the projects. The book even shows you how to create eyes and nose with polymer clay.There are clear step-by-step instructions with beautifully clear pictures. The book takes you through each step. Including everything from preparing wool, needle felting and other additional techniques. This is a fantastic book. It has everything you need to recreate all the breeds in this book. It's full of helpful hints and tips.It's a 5 out of 5 for me.You can see the Crochet Addict full review of Pedigree Dogs in Needle Felt here http://www.crochetaddictuk.com/2015/01/pedigree-dogs-in-needle-felt-book-review.html
