Kkamangkok Anyang Wool Felt Pet Keyring Class Review

Hello! Today I visited a wool felt studio for a one-day class. It was a class where you make a keyring with wool felt, and since it was my first time trying this kind of class, I went in feeling really excited. This place is Kkamangkok, a wool felt studio where you can make different pieces like pet keyrings and frames. If you want, custom orders are also possible.

The studio is near Myeonghak Station in Anyang. It is easy to find, about a 3-minute walk from the station. Go up to the second floor of the building, and it is on the left. 📍 Business hours 10:00-21:00 Closed on public holidays 📍 Parking For parking, the source says you can use Wanchungnokji Public Parking Lot for free, located about a 3-minute walk from the studio. Also, all studio classes are by reservation only, so if you plan to visit, make sure to reserve in advance.

The interior was clean, with lots of cute wool felt pieces around the studio. The workshop felt spacious, and the work area was comfortable.

When you first walk in, Huchu, the studio’s resident dog, greets people. Huchu seemed to really like people and was so gentle that I kept wanting to pet them. And while I was working, Huchu kept looking up from near my feet. Too cute.

The class I tried today was making a dog keyring. My pet is a poodle, so I was told the difficulty level would be a little easier. Apparently, if the fur is fluffy and full, the work is a bit smoother, while cats or short-haired breeds are harder. The studio had already printed the dog photo I sent in advance when making the reservation. They also prepared plenty of thread and the face base.

The keyring is made by planting wool into the face base. At the beginning, the teacher explained everything in detail, including that the needle has to go in vertically so it does not break. It felt like even a first-timer could follow along.

First, I had to separate the thread that had three colors mixed together. Since my dog is a brown poodle, I decided to use only the fully brown wool. After separating the thread and cutting it to the right length, the teacher showed me how to plant it into the base.

Following the lines that had been drawn, I pressed the wool in with the needle as many times as the teacher instructed. I was told that you need to press it in firmly so it does not fall out later. I started from the head and worked downward step by step. The process looks a little funny, but once it is finished, it turns out pretty.

This step takes longer than you might expect, so there was even a snack tray on the table. The snacks were prepared so you could have something sweet when your energy dipped during the class.

Once the shape started to come together, I brushed the wool so it puffed up like a poodle’s fur. Then it was time to cut it while matching the shape of the head and ears. Because one wrong cut with the scissors could ruin the shape, the teacher cut half of it for me, and I cut the remaining half.

The teacher helped here and there throughout the process. Every time the piece was trimmed a little, it came out looking much prettier. The touch of an expert really is different.

This was when it was almost finished. There was a small area near the end that looked a bit empty, so I added more wool, and it looked much cleaner.

Throughout the whole class, Huchu kept breaking my focus with this irresistibly cute back view. Honestly, Huchu was so cute that I could not concentrate. The other people taking the class at the same time were also dog owners, so Huchu was extremely popular.

The finished piece! After making it, I thought it looked so much like my baby in the photo. It was so cute and tiny that I kept looking at it all the way home.

They also packaged it in this cute box. I am not planning to attach it to a bag or keys because I am afraid of losing it. I plan to keep it at home, so I really liked the box packaging.

It has not even been a full month since my pet crossed the rainbow bridge, so being able to see that little face again, even as a doll, felt so good. My family members each held it and thought about our pet, and it became such a precious time. I think it would be lovely to make the face of a pet you currently live with, and it would also be meaningful to make the face of a pet you once lived with, like I did, as a memory. I am happy that a unique one-day class studio has opened in Anyang. Next time, I want to visit again to make a frame. #WoolFeltStudio #WoolFelt #AnyangWorkshop #AnyangOneDayClass #WoolFeltClass #NeedleFelt #Kkamangkok #AnyangWorkshopDate #AnyangDate #ThingsToDoInAnyang
