Level: All levels welcome

In this workshop you will learn techniques for creating an extremely lightweight yet well felted nunofelt scarf. We’ll use two layers of silk hankies and two layers of silk fabrics to create different marble designs on the two sides. You’ll be challenged to lay the superfine merino wool extremely thin to create a drapey and featherlight fabric. Fringes are optional on the scarf. We’ll significantly reduce the rolling time by applying the “dryer method”.

Learning about the finishing touches is an important part of the class. Very sharp scissors are essential to successfully cut nice shapes from the silk fabrics!
