Felted Forms (In-Person)

Adult (Ages 16+) | This program is completed

In this 4 session class students will learn how to create three dimensional forms using the wet felting technique. The process is simple, using only soapy water, wool fibers, and arm strength to make gorgeous sculptural objects or cozy mittens and hats. The students will learn the techniques and then decide if they want to go sculptural or more functional. This class is great for beginners as well as slightly more advanced felters. Materials fees for wool and other materials covered in class tuition.
