Design and create this one-of-a-kind wearable art scarf from colorful wool and alpaca fibers. It will be a true fashion statement!

Class will meet on July 27, 1-4pm. Take just this class or join us for the day to make a matching purse, or the weekend to make a hat too.  Lunch is provided between classes for those taking both on Saturday.

Scarf Class Fee $30.00 plus $25 material fee. You can register by phone or online for one or more of our fiber art classes. A $25 deposit will reserve your space.

Wet felting is done using the raw washed and combed fiber from alpacas and sheep. This class is taught by Karen Simpson and uses dyed wool and natural alpaca fibers along with fabulous embelishments. Combine it with warm, soapy water and rub to create a lovely and durable fabric. No knitting is involved in this type of felting, and no fiber art experience is required to have a great time creating a unique piece.
