We had a fabulous time at the felting classes last week. Such a fun project for the start of the summer! Here are some of the amazing baskets, bowls and coasters that have been made!
We used World of Wool Chubbs Super Chunky Merino, from Baa in Stonehaven and an 8mm crochet hook - though you could also do similar with your knitting!

We had a fab day at Baa and everyone has been so creative with their baskets and coasters. I’ll post a gallery soon!
What a fantastic day we had on Sunday, 31 May, with two workshops led by the wonderful Fiona Meade!
Everyone left with a smile, a beautiful felted crochet bowl, and plenty of new skills and techniques to take home. It was such a pleasure to see so much creativity, enthusiasm, and laughter throughout the day.
A huge thank you to Fiona and to everyone who joined us—we loved spending the day with you!
