*** Note new finish time of 5:30 ***
If you loved Annis’s needlefelt Herdwick sheep doorstop, you’ll love this gorgeous hare. He’s a large scale needlefelt hare but not as hefty as the sheep so not suitable as a doorstop.
Join Annis to create this gorgeous hare, made of a natural brown wool. It is formed into a hare shape using Annis’s needlefelting techniques. You can make your hare alert and ready for action with ears up, or “moon gazing” with the ears back. You will take home your own unique handmade hare to cherish at home or give as a wonderful gift. When complete, your hare will be approx 34cm high plus the length of the ear if they are upright.
This is a substantial piece of work and we have extended the day to aim for a 5:30 finish but please be aware that a later finish might be required as all groups are different. Extra cake can be provided to keep your strength up!!
All materials and tools are provided – please note there is a £18 material charge payable on the day.

What to expect
Time at ArtisOn is designed to take you away from it all. We provide the environment, the time and the guidance you need to create. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors and the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas. You can even leave us to clear up the mess! There will usually be two workshops going on and we encourage everyone to mingle and be nosey about what the other workshop is up to.
We encourage you to arrive at 9.30am. This will allow time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before beginning workshops at 10am. There will be a mid-morning break for refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. Lunch is usually around 12:45 for about 45 mins – you can expect a delicious homemade 2 course lunch. There will be a further afternoon break with tea or coffee and cake. All food and refreshments are included in the price of your workshop.
The finish time given is a target. There are occasions when the session may overrun so do let us know if you need to be away promptly.
We aim for your day to be a real treat. You could always learn a new skill in a shed or a draughty village hall with a curly sandwich, but we want you to have more fun than that! So we make sure we provide a day where you will be looked after, with good food, good company and great inspiration!
