Combine wool, soap and water, a felting needle, and agitation, and the sculptural possibilities are endless! This is a day to experiment with the amazing sculptural flexibility of wool and to go beyond the basics. Using a variety of fill or building a wire armature, students create a sculpture of their imagination. Some experience with wet felting is helpful but not necessary; students are encouraged to register for Felting Intro the day prior to gain experience.

You will need the following tools for this class:

two towels, a sponge, a bar of soap (olive oil soap is gentle on your skin)

Bring any special yarns or wool you have. Also, any images of what you hope to create are always helpful. Old knit sweaters or socks to be cut up for stuffing
