Intensive Felting Course

With this intensive felting course, we aim to establish a solid foundation for those who want to start in this field.
The complete course consists of three modules, corresponding to the three areas we consider essential for anyone who wants to understand felting as a whole:

Module 1: Wet felting
Module 2: Felting raw fleece
Module 3: Needle Felting

These three modules can be taken together , giving access to the intensive introductory felting course, or separately for those who want to specialize in only one of the areas. At the time of your registration, please select whether you wish to attend the complete course or only some of the modules.

This course is suitable for both beginners and those already working with felting who are looking to acquire more rigorous technical knowledge.
It includes the offer of the Beginner's Manual for Felting, developed by Saber Fazer and the only one available in Portuguese.
The workshop is led by Ana Rita de Arruda, whose artistic work is primarily based on felt, but not exclusively. She possesses unparalleled technical knowledge of wool and the felting technique, making this workshop a very special learning opportunity.

SABER FAZER is a training entity certified by DGERT, and attendance at this complete course (3 modules) entitles you to a certificate of professional training hours.
