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.

The aim of the class is to introduce the use of  multiple shuttles. The objective for using this method is to vary patterns and make colour mixing an adventure. The class will include basic motifs and bookmarks with woven borders with patterns that could go on to make things like belts, bag trims and lots more.

Supplies

  • Hook for joining
  • KIT: So that all students can progress equally, Lyn will provide kits with the base rows already made. The three pairs of shuttles will be ready wound with a different colour of thread to each pair . This means we will all be up to speed at the start of the class. The Kits can be purchased for $6 in the vending room, or borrowed for the duration of the class at no charge.
  • Lyn will also supply any additional threads needed for you to complete your project.

Conference Class with Lyn
Tat, Chat, Teach & Learn, Saturday, 11:00 to 12:30

This session provides additional instruction for the student who wants more direction and time to complete a project begun in an earlier class. Or, feel free to join this class if you’ve been working at home on a pattern created by this designer, and would like some guidance in its’ completion. This class will be informal, so you may drop in at any time or schedule this time as a class for yourself.


On Time: As a courtesy to your teacher and your classmates, please arrive ON TIME to your scheduled classes. If you finish your project early, or would like additional time to visit, shop, or see the lace display, you may leave any class early.
