SUMMARY:No-Knit Hat & Pompom — Make Your Own Cozy Winter Hat!
DESCRIPTION:Workshop: Knit & Pom — Make Your Own Cozy Winter Hat! \nGet creative and cozy in this fun\, social two-part workshop where you’ll make your very own one-of-a-kind winter hat — complete with a real fur pompom made from recycled\, reclaimed vintage fur! \nIn Part One\, you’ll learn how to handcraft a soft\, fluffy pompom using beautiful reclaimed fur with each one totally unique and full of character. The fur is an ethical re-use of vintage fur and honours the animal rather than sending these furs to the landfill. \nThen in Part Two\, you’ll design and make your own knitted hat on an easy-to-use knitting machine with no knitting experience needed! Choose your favourite yarn and colours\, knit your hat\, and finish it off with your handmade pom for a perfect custom touch. \nIt’s the ultimate feel-good\, hands-on class: part sustainable fashion\, part creative fun\, and all cozy vibes. Come solo or bring a friend and make something beautiful together! \n All materials providedEco-friendly & reclaimed furNo experience necessary \nAll particpants require a ticket. Suitable for 8 and up with adult supervision. \nCancellation policy: All ticket purchases are final. No refunds will be issued.
