Join Carin and make a beautiful felted vest OR a seamless felted shoulder bag and felted vessels - your choice! Learn or continue your learning of the felting process, including using bits of yarn, thread, fabric, lace, and needle felting to create texture, design, and color. The vests are shaped to fit - no vests that fit like a box in this class. The vessel making will include the sharing of some of Carin's new ideas that incorporate basket making.
