Wednesday, March 25, 2026 1pm-4pm Virtual via Zoom Nuno felting is a wet felting technique that incorporates a very thin, open mesh fabric with wool. Local fiber artist Betsey Leslie of Ewes To You in New Gloucester, ME will teach you how this Japanese word for cloth, “Nuno,” layers the wool into the fabric to create an extremely light-weight felt. We will be making a nuno felted scarf with wool curls as tassels. You will be using silk chiffon fabric, wool, and cashmere to create a beautiful wearable scarf of your own design. Kit includes bubble wrap, netting , felting stone , felting needles, wool, curls, and silk chiffon fabric. You will need a spray bottle, dish detergent, a couple of towels, and hot water (save $10 if you already have a felting stone) All materials will be provided and shipped to you in a kit. You’ll supply water in a spray bottle and dish soap. The live session will be recorded if you are unable to attend the live session. Felt a scarf right at home! After attending the workshop, you will be able to make nuno-felted products on your own and you’ll have video directions of this recorded session to refer to at your liesure. All levels are welcome, no experience necessary! Please use the cart NOTE FIELD to request color preferences: Natural tones, blues/greens, or purples/pinks. Also whether you like bold colors or muted tones. Did you know that current members of The Friends of the Shakers receive $5 off each workshop? Sign up or renew today for your discount!
