Learn to Felt – Wet and Dry!
We get loads of questions about felting and so we listened and designed a class to help you understand how to wet AND dry felt.
In the first class you will wet felt a square using a bucket of hot water and plunger. Once that is done, you will learn how to wet felt a bead!
In the 2nd class you will needle felt on the dried felted pieces you worked on during the first class.
HOMEWORK: you need to knit TWO squares prior to the first class. Pick up your package at the shop.
Cast on 30 stitches and knit 30 rows, cast off. Repeat for 2nd square.
