craftgrrl | Needle Felting Question

Hi! I'm new here!

I have been looking at alot of people's needle felting work, and i'm kinda interested in teaching myself how to do it. Can anyone recommend the name of a good book or kit? I saw a few kits when i did a google search, but i'm not too sure which would be best to get?

Also, i'd like an honest answer, but is needle felting a hard thing to learn? I tend to give up kind easy, like, i learned to crochet, but i can't figure out knitting, to give an example of my learning skill.

I appreciate any input i can get, and thanks!
