Needle felting is fun and easy to learn! Use wool roving from the instructor's sheep to make your very own adorable loon. A full materials kit is part of the class, just use a sharp thread scissors for finishing. This class is recommended for students aged 12 and up. Join us in person at the Folk School and learn virtually from this gifted instructor who will be "zooming" in from her farm in Wisconsin!
