Beverly Galeskas is the owner of Fiber Trends, the largest knitting pattern company in the US. She has a reputation as the 'queen of felting', and her patterns are known for their accuracy, style, and comfort. See our pattern section for more of Bev's designs Just about anything you can knit can be felted - that is, shrunk with heat and agitation to create a thicker, more durable fabric. The knitting goes fast with fat yarn on big needles, and felting is easy and fun, but learning how to make all of it come together takes some skill. More than just a pattern book, 'Felted Knits' shows you how to choose and test yarns, correctly size a knitted piece for felting, accurately shrink items by hand and washing machine, improve your results with blocking, and how to care for your felted knits. Novice and experienced knitters alike can choose from the books 24 projects. This invaluable resource also includes sections on embellishing your felting and about felting on felt (needle felting).
