About this Event
Join us for an afternoon of creative “stabbing” to craft your very own sheep puff. You’ll discover the addictive art of needle felting as you transform unspun wool into a personality-packed figure using a special felting needle. Cathy will guide you through the essentials of sculpting with wool, including the professional technique for attaching authentic curly locks to give your sheep its signature fleece. To top it off, you’ll even craft a tiny carrot for your new friend to snack on. This is perfectly suited for absolute beginners.
Make a full day of fun! Your ticket includes FREE Village admission, which opens at 11:00 a.m. for those who wish to bring a picnic lunch and explore the grounds. In a unique farm-to-art experience, you’ll felt with some wool from the Village’s own flock of Border Leicester sheep. Best of all, you can visit the sheep in their field before or after the workshop.
Materials included in the cost are wool, 2 felting needles, and curly wool locks. Foam felting pads are provided for students to use during the workshop and can be purchased separately.
If you have any questions, please email instructor Cathy at [email protected].
