BIO
Lyn learned to tat about 45 years ago during an extended
hospital stay and instantly became hooked. About 15 years ago, she joined
the Ring of Tatters, and tatting became an increasingly larger part of
her life. In 1997 she and her husband started their business:
Tatting & Design.
Since then, she has written a series of tatting pattern books and teaches
at Tatting Days in the UK, residential weekends and regular workshop classes.

for the duration of the class at no charge.
