Make-a-Long Craft Night at NYC Resistor
Introducing Make-A-Long, a new monthly crafting event at NYCR. Make-A-Long is a self-guided craft workshop where participants learn new skills, explore new materials and make great things!
In this session we’ll explore the wonderful world of felting using carded wool (also known as wool roving). Using water or needles, wool roving can be manipulated to form a myriad of different shapes. Learning how to felt means you can make things like: felted soap, felted creatures, felted jewelry, felted ornaments and more!
Are you a beginner? Don’t worry! We’ll provide instructions and materials for a variety of projects. Facilitators will be available to help guide you through a project of your choice.
Are you a master? Bring a project, use our materials and hang out in a great space while doing what you love.
The event is from 5-8pm on December 15th. Sign up here; the cost is $20.
