The Project:

Spend the morning in the wonder of wool and beads. Select your color composition from an array of beautifully dyed merino wool, then hand felt a flexible, fascinating and comfortable felt bangle using the Turbo Felting Board and a little hot soapy water. Next delight in the satisfying and meditative repetition of tubular peyote worked in graduated bead sizes. Join the felt’s tapered ends within the beaded bead, adjusting for perfect fit.
