Can anyone tell me what this craft, using a wood board, felt, pins and coloured thread, is called?. I used to do it as a hobby around 30yrs ago, but I just can't remember what it's called, and I can't even remember if the pattern templates and items required were bought locally or mail ordered through a magazine. I have asked my parents but they can't remember either. I used to give them out as Christmas presents, and this is the only one that I have for myself. I'd quite like to give it another go, so I need to find out what it is called.

Its amazing what you find by typing just a few of the words you have typed here into Google!

Hint, for an easier experience, try typing "String Art" into Google... ;)

No need to be an arse. I have Googled pretty much everything I could think of, mainly around 'Pin and Board Art', but it never returned any relevant results, so my next stop was to ask here.

Thanks Trinkie. It is indeed called 'String Art', but I still don't remember that :-o
