designing & making a wet felted bowl - sold out
Instructor - Zoe Emily
Designing & Making a Wet Felted Bowl
In this workshop participants will learn the basic principles and
techniques of wet felting and how to work with a mould (or resist) to form a felted
bowl. You will discover the unique properties of wool fibres that allow them to interlock
into felted fabric, and learn how to physically manipulate them into a 3-dimensional
shape. During the process, you will have the chance to personalize your work by
incorporating other fibres and materials as surface embellishments. Wet felting is
tactile, soapy, energetic, and, yes, wet. Dating back as far as 6300 BC, wet felting is the
oldest form or fibre art and its underlying principles have remained unchanged. Come
learn this ancient art, with a modern twist, and feel the satisfaction of building an
object from its individual fibres. Note: all of the fibres and embellishments available in
this class are dyed by Zoë in small batches using various brews of foraged plants from
her garden, forest and compost bin. Working with these beautiful fibres alone is a great
pleasure.
