Workshop/Course, from 12 Nov 2019

Felt Slipper Workshop at Quirky Workshops

Details

Starting from scratch using various colours of soft pure 100% merino wool fibre, you will learn how to lay out and combine these fibres together and mix colours to create subtle hues. Then work them gently together to create your own 'felted fabric design' which you will then turn into two perfect seamless slipper forms.

Mould these to your own foot shape and transform them into a real pair of very warm funky slippers!

Tue 12 November 2019 ~ Thurs 16th April 2020 ~ Thur 5th Nov 2020

Greystoke Craft Garden (formerly Greystoke Cycle Cafe Tea Garden) is situated just 300yd north of the village green on the edge of the lovely village of Greystoke. The village nestles happily on the fringes of the Lake District National Park, 5 miles west of Penrith and the Eden Valley and 5 miles north of Ullswater. We have only limited parking and ask workshops attendees to enjoy the 300yd flat walking from the free village car park, alongside the racehorses and past the Castle walls. We will send maps etc on booking confirmation. We have 2 parking spaces reserved for those unable to walk this distance, please let us know. Drop off of students or materials is fine.

Parking: free

Accessible by Public Transport: 5 miles from Penrith station
