Description: Join us for a needle felting program designed for absolute beginners. Needle felting is a type of textile art which uses specialized needles to form wool into 3-D shapes, creating unique art pieces. Participants will get the chance to meet our sheep, learn about how wool is processed, and create their own felted chicken to take home using a combination of dyed wool and natural, undyed wool from our own sheep. Participants of all skill levels are welcome.
