Ages 15 and Up, $135

Workshop Description: Learn the basics of felting, or expand your knowledge, as we create beautiful felt scarves with world renown Dawn Edwards!

In this workshop, we will create a lightweight, airy, thin, yet strong, lattice or free-form felt scarf using fine, soft Merino wool.  If time allows, we will make a flower pin to adorn your scarf.

This is a fun class…perfect for both beginners and more experienced feltmakers. Come and explore the ancient art of feltmaking, where we will utilize traditional techniques (using wool, soap, water and agitation of the wool fibers)…no knitting or sewing involved.

Participants will need to bring the following supplies:

• 3-4 old bath size towels
• A plastic dishpan or plastic bucket/pail to hold water
• Waterproof apron if you’d like

Materials included are:

• Merino wool
• Written take-home instructions
• Plastic for the scarf layout
• Instructor’s supplies

Registration Deadline is February 13.
