Lanette Freitag began working with fibres in 1987 when she raised llamas and alpacas. Beginning with spinning and knitting she later discovered felting provided a greater outlet for her creativity. Together with her husband she developed tools for needle felting and the FeltLOOOM®. Lanette continues to develop needle felted products and kits utilizing the fabric produced by the FeltLOOM®. Today she is president of FeltLOOM, Inc., a juried fibre artist and contributing designer for Create and Decorate Magazine. www.feltloom.com
