Featured Image

 

Discover the magic of transforming fluffy Merino wool fibres into beautiful three-dimensional vessels through the engaging process of wet felting. Under the guidance of experienced Feltmakers Ireland guild members, you’ll create your own masterpiece using soap, water, and your hands. Yes, it is THAT simple!

Curious about sheep and Irish wool varieties? Explore the unique reactions of different Irish wool types that have been needle and wet felted. Don’t miss the chance to browse and purchase our book, ‘Exploring Irish Wool for Feltmaking’, a rich resource on forty breeds of Irish-raised sheep.

Marvel at a display of inspiring felted artworks and wearables crafted by our talented members, showcasing the beauty and versatility of feltmaking.

We will have two hands-on learning sessions: When booking your FREE ticket on Eventbrite, please choose only one of the sessions.
