Orenburg Lace with Sharon Hatelt



Orenburg Lace Workshop by Sharon Hatelt
Sat April 5 - 10 - Noon, 1pm - 3pm
This workshop is an introduction to the history and techniques of Orenburg lace knitting. You will learn the three basic elements of this traditional Russian craft by creating a miniature shawl. A surprise added feature will turn your miniature sample into a lovely functional item you can use often.
A complete kit will be provided. The information offered in this workshop is based on the book "Gossamer Webs" by Kmeleva and Noble. Purchase of the book is optional and can be ordered through Fun Knits.
This is a fascinating aspect of knitting history and the skill rating is "easy".

SHARRON HATELT
Spinner, Knitter, Weaver, Quilter


I have been exploring fibre arts for nearly twenty years now and am constantly fascinated by the colours, textures, and techniques of spinning, knitting, weaving, and quilting.
I have chosen to specialize in original designs and once in a lifetime items. I enjoy creating something that is unusual in its structure as well as multifunctional and long lasting.
