Select a date from the drop-down menu.


In this 3-hour workshop you will learn the ancient art of wet felting – the process of loose wool becoming a fabric – and create & design one felted bowl (about 4-5”).

The instructor will lead you, with easy steps, through the whole making of your bowl. First you will layer soft merino wool and use pieces of yarn to add color and texture details. Various yarn will be provided but if you have some special one at home, please feel free to bring it! Then your hands will be getting wet and soapy during the “sculpting” or felting process. Towels will be provided.

DIY kits will be available for purchase at the end of class. They are perfect as a gift or for you to make more bowls at home.

No experience necessary. Ages 14+ welcome!
All materials are provided. A $10 material fee will be collected (cash only) by the instructor at the start of class.
