New to Needle Felting? Sculpt Your First Wool Figure
One barbed needle, a handful of colored wool, and a few hours — and you have a three-dimensional animal, flower, or figure shaped entirely by hand. Needle felting is compact, meditative, and produces tactile objects that feel nothing like ordinary craft.

Kumihimo: Braid Silky Cord Into Bracelets on a Foam Disk
A round foam disk and some satin cord are all it takes to braid the kind of tight, glossy cord you see on bracelets and phone straps. It's meditative in the same way as macramé, but the motion and the tools are completely different.
