At the start we will make a normal daily use hat (I mean, a wearable one). On this hat we canapply colorful pure woven silk fabrics on the surface or just work simply with wool. This should bea more or less classical hat. Of course we can decorate it with small 3D elements (like roses) orkeep it in a simple design. The basic material will be the finest Australian merino wool. I willbring different hat-prototypes with me.After we have finished our first hat we will make a sculptural hat, where all the 3dimensionalparts will be felted together.Students must bring:Pens and big piece of papers to designIsolating plastic for the pattern (also a big piece),
