Meet our new felting teacher Irina Fedotova and discover the art of creating unique textures in wool with our master class on felting a cushion using the Shibori technique!


Traditionally a Japanese dyeing method, Shibori involves folding, twisting, and stitching fabric to create intricate patterns.
