I recently read in Clotide's Sewing Savvy about a needle craft I hadn't heard of before. Felting, as it turns out, is a rather obscure hobby. I didn't find any results for it on Ebay. Thankfully, Amazon has quite a few books listed for interested crafters.
Felting is just what it sounds like: making felt. Take yarn, stab it into a piece of cloth a couple times with a needle in a nice pattern, and viola!
Felting can also be used to add interesting textures to knits (and crochets) as well as embellishments to clothing.
Here's the most useful result I found on Amazon:
Felting Kit!
There are several books on felting as well. I'd check them out if I was interested.
