A beginner’s class on this earliest method of creating tatted lace taught by our resident expert. Tatting is a technique for handcrafting a particularly durable lace from a series of knots and loops. A shuttle facilitates tatting by holding a length of thread and guiding it through loops to make the requisite knots. Tatting can be used to make lace edging as well as doilies, collars and accessories such as earrings and necklaces. Materials provided.
