Workshop content: –

The workshop explores the exciting textural properties of felt, using basic knitting techniques and experimental materials.

 

  • Playing with colour and pattern
  • Using knitting simple techniques to create embossed effects
  • Combining felting yarn with none felting yarn to produce unusual textures

 

There will be discussions on the felting properties of different sheep breeds, felting methods for yarns (wet and dry needle felting), plus knitting demonstrations.  The session includes a worksheet, samples and a PowerPoint presentation to inspire further ideas for after the session.

 

All levels of ability are welcome.  The workshop is aimed at anyone with an interest in textiles, wishing to explore the artistic potential of knitting.  The emphasis is on creating experimental samples, rather than a finished piece.
