Due to the success of our previous calendars, we are back with something new and equally beautiful for 2024.
Our theme is Great British wildlife and all of the images are taken from original feltwork pieces created by adults with learning and other disabilities from our Larchfield Community.
Felting is the ancient tradition of locking together wool fibres using moisture and/or friction. The two felting techniques are called ‘wet felting’ and ‘needle felting’. In wet felting, hot soapy water and hand rubbing are used to fuse the wool together. In needle felting, triangular-shaped needles with notches push and intermingle the wool fibres together. Felting is a therapeutic activity that allows the people we support to express their creativity whilst using natural, sustainable materials. We hope that these images of our felted artwork bring you joy and make you smile throughout the year.
