“I didn’t quite know what to expect but it’s been so much more!”     Lindsay Wright

The Masterclass was a masterclass in making with more than a little physical activity going into the demands of sculpting a substantial piece of felt into a hat.  Learning about wool and its properties was just one part of the weekend.  Learning how to lay it out on a template, begin to felt it, start to create the hat shape, work the felt to shrink it to the size required, rinsing, fixing and adding a hatband – two days of very valuable experience and knowledge acquired. A big thankyou goes to Zara & Paul for their very able and wise leading of this Masterclass weekend, one that we feel could be repeated at a future date.
