Susanne Farrington came to the CNY Fiber Festival and taught us how to craft a wet-felted hat over a ceramic form. Susanne picked out some green and blue Bluefaced Leicester wool from my booth, and fashioned a hat that looks like a globe. We could even pick out Madagascar in the design. The crowds were mesmerized with Susanne's talented hands. I learned how to use needles to trim the edges. Susanne is also a potter and used a ceramic device of her own design to help the felting process.
