Felting is an incredible technique that contains immense creative potential. However, it is also one of the techniques on which we find less accurate and fundamental information, especially with regard to Wet Felting.
With this workshop we want to establish a solid base for those who want to start in the technique properly, to then advance safely to more specific areas.
This workshop is suitable both for beginners and for those who already work with felting but are looking to acquire more rigorous technical knowledge.

It includes the Introduction to Felting Handbook (Portuguese) developed by Saber Fazer and is the only one available in Portuguese.

The workshop is guided by Ana Rita de Arruda whose artistic work is primarily based on felt, but not only. He has incomparable technical knowledge about wool and felting techniques, which makes this workshop a very special learning opportunity.
