What's On

 

Members, please email webeditor@ringoftatters.org.uk with details of your tatting events and we will display them here.

 

Venues where the Ring of Tatters will be demonstrating in 2010

Details will be displayed when we receive the information.

VOLUNTEERS – If you are interested in demonstrating at any of these shows, please don't wait to be asked! Contact Ruth the Exhibitions Co-ordinator and let her know you are willing. You don't need to be a great tatter! What we need are enthusiastic people who can turn the knot. If you can tat a simple chain, that's all you need to demonstrate.

 

Tatting Days and Other Events

Usually a tatting day runs from 10 - 4. You take a packed lunch but drinks are provided all day. There is generally a workshop and a supplier, and maybe a competition - but just enjoy tatting and chatting if you prefer. In the UK tickets are about £3. Beginners are always welcome and this is a great way to learn with lots of people to help you. You don't have to be a member of the Ring to attend.

Tatting workshops, exhibitions and fairs are also included here.

More details in the Newsletter or Contact Us.
