Introduction: get ready! -- Getting started -- Solo or social -- Helpful resources -- Sew -- Embroider -- Felt -- Knit -- Crochet -- Weave.
In today's thriving maker culture, kids are hungry for hands-on guidance in creating stylish wearables and practical objects, or hacking and customizing existing ones. Authors Nicole Blum and Catherine Newman get them started with complete instructions for mastering six favorite fiber crafts. Step-by-step photos teach kids ages 9₆14 the basics of how to sew, knit, crochet, felt, embroider, and weave, plus how to make three projects for each craft. From woven patches and a knitted backpack to embroidered merit badges and a crocheted bracelet, the fresh, kid-approved projects encourage creative variations and build confidence along with valuable life skills.

Badges Included! submitted by sara on July 1, 2018, 11:04am My eye was drawn to the merit badges you can make yourself- and the instructions caution that they were made by an expert sewer (so yours may not look as good.) Wouldn't that be fun for the summer game?!
cool submitted by manz on July 30, 2018, 3:07pm A cool book with some fun projects for all ages. Yay DIY!
Lots of cool and inspiring projects! submitted by ReadBooks on June 24, 2021, 9:45am There is embroidery, sewing, crocheting, weaving, felting, and knitting all taught in one book, with several cool projects for each! The knitting instructions were confusing to me, but that is probably just me. Overall, there are a variety of projects so that you can choose whichever look interesting to you. There are, for the most part, clear instructions with photos to go along with them, and ideas to enhance your project. I'd recommend it!
