I have this Japanese needle-felting book that I really need the translation for because the pictures alone aren't enough. There are 7 pages that need to be translated from Japanese to English

PM if you can help!

Okay, so I've started needle-felting and have a few questions about the craft

1) I've seen some needle felted pieces that have colors that seem to fan out and blend, almost like part of it is transparent, how would I do this?

2) Does anyone know a place where there is a tutorial on how to make the basic shapes with needle-felting? (like balls, cones, squares, pyramids, etc)


thanks in advance for the help!

Okay, so I just bought this pattern book off of www.Etsy.com and it was great because it said it was out of print and everything. Problem is.... it's all in Japanese and I can't figure out anything it says. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but the charts it has are also confusing. Is there anyone willing to translate it for me if I send them a copy of it? I'd greatly appreciate anyone's help!

Hi, I am now 18 and still live in Houston (well more so in Katy now that I think about it) I have recently broken up a friendship with a friend who i've known for a few years now and am now looking for someone to help ease the pain of loosing that friend. Enough personal stuff, let's get down to what you're really looking for me to tell you!

I am a really good crocheter and have improved my amigurumi skills over the last year. I have started a project that is going to be epic _{(more about that later)}
I am looking forward to improving my craft and getting some well needed feedback.

I suggest that we use the characters or anything Miyazaki related and have that be the theme for a challenge. I myself LOVE Miyazaki's movies (favorite being Kiki's Delivery Service) and think it would be a perfect fit for crafters everywhere who are more familiar with his movie "Spirited Away" which came out i think almost 9-10 years ago.

hey, I'm a 17 year old looking for friends who are in to crocheting amigurumi like I am. I've so far made only a few things but would love to learn how to make many things.

things i've made so far:
monkey
elephant (of my own pattern)
bunny
kitty
hexapus (an octopus with only six legs cause I couldn't fit in all eight)

anyway, can't wait to browse and find some awesome patterns!
