Wet Felting | Wool Felted Soap

Learn to wet felt soap!
August 10, 10am-12pm

Join this 2-hour workshop and learn the ancient art of wet felting — the process of transforming loose wool into felted fabric. This textile art technique has been used in the making of rugs, homes (yurts) and clothing for centuries. And in this class, each student will make a felted soap.

What are felted soaps?
A felted soap is the union of a washcloth and a bar of soap. The wool wrapped around the soap becomes a seamless piece of felt and helps prolong the life of the soap while offering a gentle exfoliation of the skin.
The instructor will take you step by step through the felting process, starting with creating a color palette and design using a wide selection of dyed merino wool.
Each student will be making 1 felted soap to take home. If time and interests permit, additional soaps will be available to make for $10 each (paid cash to instructor) or to take and make at home.
The soaps used for this class are made with all natural ingredients, scented with essential oils and made in the US. For allergies or soap preference, students can bring their own soap to wrap.
No experience necessary. Ages 8+ welcome.
All the materials and tools you need are provided to create 1 felted soap.
