Textile Tuesdays: Make a Wet Felted Bowl or Pumpkin

Tues 28 Oct, The Core adults

Make a wet felted bowl or pumpkin in this creative workshop with textile artist Penny Dixon.

Main Info

Work with textile artist Penny to create a small but strong bowl made entirely from wool! You will use lovely, soft woollen fibres and lay them across a plastic circle in a particular way.

You will then be guided how to place them on the other side and then, using soap and water will rub the fibres until they are ready to cut into. Learn the clever technique of then turning your flat piece into a 3D bowl. You can use any colours but why not make it seasonal and turn it into a pumpkin or gourd?

Please bring a waterproof carrier bag and an old towel to work on. All other materials are provided.
