Private farm-based wool preparation and felting retreats
Follow wool from fiber preparation into felt at a sheep farm
Vermont Grand View Farm / Kim Goodling
Kim Goodling offers tailored one-to-one and small-group fiber-art retreats in the farm’s barn studio, covering wool preparation, felting and natural dyeing. The current invitation expressly welcomes friends, families and wedding parties seeking a shared farm activity rather than an ordinary knitting lesson.
Current location note / listed area: Washington, Vermont; private barn-studio instruction
A prearranged learning retreat, not a wedding ceremony or reception venue package. Confirm the exact process, project, duration, access and materials; historical sheep-to-hat examples are not promised outcomes. No animal handling, finished garment, lodging inclusion or offsite service is assumed. Felt By Kim and the Living with Gotlands blog belong to the same operator.
