Description
Advanced Needle Felting Workshop (Level 3–4)
This workshop is designed for makers who want to elevate their needle-felting skills. As a Level 3–4 class, participants must have completed at least 4–6 wire-armature projects. Confident experience with wire armature construction is essential.
You will begin by creating a wire armature, then sculpt the dog’s form using core wool, and finally learn how to add curly wool for realistic texture and detail. The workshop focuses on building skills in wire work, core-wool shaping, and attaching curly wool.
This workshop is dedicated to curly-coated breeds such as Labradoodles, Cockapoos, and Cavapoos. We will not be working on short- or long-haired straight-coat breeds.
Colour options (curly Hamanaka wool):
White, Black, Fog, Tan, Caramel, Toffee
