Tatting at the Library

My fellow tatter Anitra and I displayed and demonstrated tatting this week at one of the libraries in Raleigh, NC. Her husband Steve, who took the photo, was also there tatting. The librarian counted 69 visitors to our event during the hour and a half that we were there.

This is the third fiber craft demo I've participated in this fall: 2 for tatting and 1 for crochet. The crochet event was especially satisfying due to the number of children who tried their hands at making chains. A couple of kids even took home yards of yarn that I gave them so they could continue to practice at home. I hope they grow up to be passionate about thread and yarn as I am.
