Sauna hat workshop with Belinda - Granton

  • Soul Water Sauna - Granton 20 West Shore Road Edinburgh, Scotland, EH5 1QD United Kingdom (map)

What is a Sauna hat and why do we wear them? Sauna hats are traditionally worn in the sauna to protect your head, hair and ears from becoming too hot, and keep us in the sauna that little bit longer. They are a natural way to keep your head cool inside the sauna, and warm outside during cold water submersion.

We all love the Soul Water Sauna hats, but why not join me to make your own. I have played with fibre for many years and felting was one of the first things that I experimented with. I mainly use it as a mindfulness excercise, whether that is by paying attention to how the fibers are joining while I am doing wet felting, or making sure I don’t stab myself with a needle when I am needle felting.

In this session I am hoping to not only teach you how to felt, but also give you a way of relaxing, get rid of tension, just forget a little about the world around you and have time to chat with other like minded people. We will use the wet felting method to make our hats. You will have different types of fibers in neutral colors to choose from. You will also have time to learn the art of needle felting so that you can go away and decorate your hat in whichever way you fancy. We will provide all the equipment and materials you will need to do both and you will get a little goody bag with your equipment to do the needle felting at home, which you will be able to fill with fiber of your choice to take home.
