Wet Felted Vessel

  • SAFA Schoolhouse 23 Harbor Road, Winter Harbor, ME 04693 Winter Harbor United States (map)

Create a 3-dimensional wool vessel. Wool fibers will be layered around a foam resist, wet with slightly soapy water, then rubbed and rolled to tangle and bind the fibers together to form a non-woven fabric, which is felt. To shrink and felt your forms, you will squeeze and possibly throw them, making them dense and thick.
Felt-making is a very physical activity. Most of the work will be done while standing. Wear comfortable shoes and clothing that you don’t mind getting wet.
For beginners & all levels.

  • Ages:  Teen, Adult

  • Bring:   Two large bath towels and a large bowl for water. Optional: Any wool roving or batting, beads or baubles you would like to add to your felted vessel.

  • Price: $125
