HIRE THE LOOM.
Book time on Auckland's industrial needle felting machine
— for fibre artisans, students and industry, working in wool and mixed media.
Wool Revolution Studio is home to a modern industrial needle felting
loom with a full 150cm needle bed — built for turning raw wool fibre,
carded qualities of wool, yarn and textiles into homewares, textile art and
mixed media pieces. It's new technology, easy to use, and surprisingly
quick to create innovative textile work. Our technical support person runs
a full orientation at the start of every session, so no prior experience is
needed to get started. Whether you're felting wool from your own farm,
discovering the creative potential of wool fibre and yarn, or upcycling
textile waste and wool that would otherwise go to landfill, this machine
will introduce you to a new world of textile creativity.
FIBRE ARTISANS:
Scale your practice up on a bed built for large,
seamless felted work — homewares, wall
pieces, garments.
STUDENTS:
Discounted access to explore industrial needle
felting technology, with technical support on
hand.
INDUSTRY & MAKERS:
Prototype wool homewares, or upcycle textile
waste at production scale, without buying the
machine.
