While the felt is drying we will learn how to make fun and funky necklaces or festival headbands using up scraps of felt and fabrics together with odd buttons and beads. This is a great way to use up your stash ! After lunch\, when the felt is dry we will learn how to turn the felt into flat beads to create necklaces from your unique designer felt. Once learned\, this technique can be used with any thin fabric and can be a great way to use up short lengths or recycle well loved garments into wearable art.

Using a combination of yarns of different sizes\, textures\, and fiber content\, we will break just about every weaving rule to create a delicate web of cloth. The yarns don’t need to shrink in this process because the wool roving shingled to the finished cloth does that job. We’ll spend one day weaving and the next felting. Any weight cloth can be made from Louisiana appropriate attire to ski weather warm. Best of all the sky is the limit with color and you’ll get textures no other process replicates. We’ll make a table sized piece that can be used as a scarf or cut up for other uses.
