Discover the art of wet felting in this immersive four-week course, designed to take you from first exploration of fibre to confidently creating a beautiful wearable piece. Working in a small, supportive group, you’ll learn core wet felting techniques while completing a finished item each week.
Led by fibre artist Vicky Pulman of Needlessly Felted, the course gently builds skills and confidence, combining technical learning with creative freedom. You’ll explore how wool behaves, how to shape and control felt, and how to use colour, texture, and composition to create both artwork and wearables.

The course covers fibre selection, layout and layering, resist techniques, shrinkage control, surface design, and finishing - giving you a solid foundation in wet felting and the confidence to continue independently.
All materials and equipment are provided, and no previous experience is required. The course is suitable for complete beginners as well as those looking to deepen their felting practice or experiment with a vast array of fibres.
By the end of the course, you’ll leave with four completed pieces, a strong understanding of wet felting techniques, and the confidence to continue your felting journey independently.
