Students can choose between a large fish (tissue paper holder) or a small fish (pencil case). The large fish has over twice the surface area of the small fish, giving you plenty of time to practice all the steps of felting. The small fish is slightly smaller, but requires some needlework—hand-sewing the zipper. Regardless of which one you choose, you'll feel a sense of accomplishment! ▍Work size - Big Fish Tissue Paper Case 30*15cm - Small fish pencil case 23*8 cm Course Content - Understand the principles of wool felting - Basic techniques and key points of wet felting - Color variation and texture creation - Irregular shape production and shaping techniques - (Hand-sewn zipper) - Needle felt details https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54685877807_f66dcd1f57.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54599180951_2c5a5017dc.jpg ▋Activity Process 1.

She has experience teaching both public and private sectors, and both large and small classes, and has participated in exhibitions and various collaborations. I love all kinds of handcrafting, experimenting with various media until I encountered wool felt. I was captivated by its warm texture and infinite plasticity. The tools required are few and easily accessible, requiring only time and a relaxed mind. Through the repetitive movements of my hands, I transform wool fibers into various works. Beyond my creative endeavors, I hope to attract more people to join me, allowing them to carve out some time for themselves and experience the joy of crafting.
