Sheep to Shawl: Felting

Ever wonder where your clothes come from? Find out through Pohick's Sheep to Shawl series, where we will trace the process from start to finish - and invite you to learn how to acquire these ancient skills for yourself.
In our next wool adventure, we'll learn the basics of felting by trying out two different techniques: wet felting and needle felting. Both techniques are art forms in themselves, allowing crafters and artists to paint with wool. Needle felting is also useful in repairing small holes in wool sweaters. Join us and discover the joys of felting!

Next up in this series:
Weaving - Learn how to warp a loom, begin to weave by contributing to a community art project, and leave with a cardboard bracelet loom and materials to make a bracelet (June 28).
