Felting and Spinning Workshops, Lincolnshire |
We offer a number of different types and levels of spinning and felting workshops.
Our beginner courses introduce you to the basic elements of felting, including laying the fibres (sheep and alpaca), rubbing and fulling (rolling and tightening up the fibre) and then making a sample and completing the end product such as a scarf or cushion. Intermediate classes make items such as handbags, slippers, rugs and much more.
Our beginner courses introduce you to the basic elements of spinning, carding the fibre and learning the techniques of making fibre into yarn. Practice makes perfect.
