For Denise -- Tatting
Come learn about tatting! A popular handicraft of the mid-1800s, tatting is a unique method of creating a strong shuttle-made lace from thread.
In this single, standalone class you will gain experience with the basics of this uncommon lace making practice. Expect to leave class having begun or finished a small snowflake and be provided with ways to expand the project as you develop your skills.
In this class, we will be celebrating the seasonal weather by making snowflakes! These simple motifs can be adapted to create garlands, ornaments, or other decorative details with possible applications being covered as we work. We will focus on developing basic skills while creating a small six-ring flake with the option of adding on further in and beyond the class.
In the class we will cover the basics of tatting including:
How to load a shuttle
How to select thread to use
Making double stitches
Creating rings
Creating chains
Making picots
Attaching rings and chains together with picots
Age Required: This skill and class is ideal for learners 14+.
Required Skills/Knowledge: No prior experience necessary! This class is perfect for beginners.
Materials:All materials will be provided and are included in the class cost, including:
1 Boye tatting shuttle
8 colors of thread samples
Small organza bag
Communal supplies will also be provided for use during class.
Homework: Due to the nature of tatting, projects can take some time to complete. As such, you should expect to have to complete the project after class. The class will provide you with the basics and get you started.
