Nuno Felt Cowl — Saturday Morning

Nov 14, 2026, 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM | Instructor: Kami Watson

Students will discover the basics of nuno felting through the creation of a lightweight wearable work of textile art. They will explore surface design techniques by combining wool fibers with hand dyed and reclaimed silk fabrics using soap, water, and agitation.

Be advised there may be long periods of standing, and felting requires some physical exertion. Comfortable shoes and clothing are recommended. All levels welcome.

Materials and usage of workshop supplies are included in the fee. Students are asked to bring two old towels and pen/pencil.

Skill Level: All Levels

Class Size: 5–12 students
