Grab a friend and learn the art of needle felting in a supportive and relaxing environment. In this beginner friendly workshop, you will learn skills and techniques specific to needle felting and make a ghost wearing a witch hat!

Needle felting is a technique of using a very sharp, barbed needle to repeatedly stab into the wool to create felt. The wool becomes tangled and snarled and compressed by the needle to create various three dimensional forms. The needles that are used are special, very sharp, barbed needles. The wool gets hooked on these barbs and compresses into itself.

No experience is necessary. All materials are included, and you get to take your felting needle and foam pad home too.
