Leslie Granbeck
This cozy cowl has it all — it’s reversible, it’s convertible, and it’s gender-neutral! Explore the contemporary art of nuno felting by creating a cowl that any body and everybody can wear. Learn to combine soft wool fibers and silk fabric, then decorate your cowl with a variety of embellishments, including more silk! Create a felted cowl that can be worn around the neck or converted into an ear warmer or headband. Felting experience helpful, but bold beginners are welcome. Some physical stamina needed for felting classes.
Materials fee is $35, payable to the instructor at the time of class.

Instructor Bio:
Leslie Granbeck is an accomplished feltmaker, beader, and teacher for 20 years, Leslie Granbeck’s talents took a new direction when she discovered the technique of turning wool fibers into beads and jewelry. For Granbeck, feltmaking is magical, allowing her to turn simple wool fibers into beautiful scarves, purses, slippers, and garments. She teaches a variety of feltmaking techniques, and her classes are full of color, creativity, and adventure. (They also include a free workout as feltmaking is a “physical art.”) When not teaching, you’ll find her in the studio working on new fiber and bead projects. fiberenvy.net
