About

Learn what wet-felting is and why wool felts, through a brief history and biology of wool. Learn how to layer your wool project to obtain an even thickness felt and then create the leaves and flowers that you'll apply to your work. 

On the second day, you'll proceed to the wet part of your felting experience. You'll learn how to properly wet the fiber, the stages that wool undergoes during the felting process, and the difference between a prefelt stage, soft felt, strong felt, fulling, and shocking fibers. 
 
By the end of these sessions, you'll be able to embark on your very own felting adventure with the confidence and skills you've acquired.
