Course JOURNEYS IN WOOL: The Art of Shibori Felting

From exploration to a woolen landscape – an in-depth course where we create a sample book and a felted picture of your own inspiration through a relaxed exploration of shibori textures.
​
You are invited to a creative journey designed for those who wish to take the time for an in-depth exploration of one of the most fascinating felting techniques. In a relaxed atmosphere, we will discover how to capture impressions of a landscape in wool using the shibori technique—all accompanied by a warm drink, a light snack, and pleasant conversation.

​Our Journey’s Path

Emphasis on Sample Exploration: Most of our sessions will be dedicated to creating various felt samples using the shibori technique. We will learn how to make proper pre-felt and shibori felt, experimenting with different base wools, as well as combinations with fabrics and non-wool fibers.
​
​Personal Sample Book: Each created pattern will find its place in a folder or box—your permanent professional manual and a source of future inspiration.

Shibori Landscape Picture: We will round off our acquired knowledge by creating a final piece. Throughout the course, we will develop a concept, determine the composition, and select textures for a felted picture with a landscape motif.

Group Exhibition: We will conclude our journey with an exhibition of the created works.

​Schedule
