Let’s Get Felting!

I have teamed up with Jackrabbit Workshop in Laramie and I am so excited to be able to offer our community an in-person workshop centered around the wool from my small flock of Icelandic sheep.

All materials and tools will be provided.

*This workshop requires handling raw sheep fleece which does contain lanolin, dirt, and vegetable matter (grass/hay/weeds). If you have a known lanolin allergy or sensitive skin, please do not enroll in this course.*

It is a tremendous honor to share this craft and amazing aspect of my flock of sheep with you.

Thanks for your support and excitement!

I cannot wait to spend time making functional wool art with you and to learn of how you use these skills down the road.
