The Gardiner Library will host a Felting Workshop with Christine Adams on Sunday, March 10 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. The class costs $15 for included supplies and attendees can pre-register by March 8. Space is limited. Learn to make a felted cupcake. Felting is an age old craft, around for hundreds of years which uses wool from a sheep, alpaca, and llama as well as other animal fur. The wool is sheared, cleaned and processed to produce what is now called roving. Roving is manipulated with a specialized needle to form shapes and create unique, natural, fun and functional objects.

To pre-register class, call the library at 255-1255 or stop by 133 Farmer’s Turnpike in Gardiner.

Christine Adams has been felting for 8 years and has taught monthly felting classes at the Wallkill and Plattekill libraries as well as one-on-one and for small parties. Christine loves to teach and work with her hands. In addition to felting, Christine has experience with wood burning, card making, collage, and jewelry making.
