Learn this ancient technique in unique modern ways!

By the end of this two-day workshop you will learn the basics of Wet Felting, including Flat Felting, Nuno Felting and 3D Felting.

Each student will also design and make their own piece of hand-felted cloth, a decorative felt bowl, a pouch or pocket (ideal for cell phones, iPods or even an eye glass case) and a 3D felted object.

This workshop takes place over two days with three hours of felting techniques taught on each day.

* The felting kit, available at the first class, is an additional $25 and includes: sponge, olive oil natural soap, felting mat, non-slip mat, small piece of firm plastic (to make pouches), fabric (silks and linens for Nuno Felting), 125 grams of wool (2-3 kinds/colours).
