Rope Making & Knot Tying in Edale

This May I’m offering a new workshop for the first time at the Village Hall in Edale.

We are going to make a ‘Kringle’ circular rope mat. There will be 3 different sizes available to choose from that could serve the purposes of becoming a coasters, table mat (rope trivet) and doormat. Please see a photo attached below of the traditional Kringle mat design.

(Please see a photo attached below of this traditional Danish circular rope mat design from one of my books.)

max. 9 participants

you will receive full instructions & support to make your own rope, and knotting and finishing your own mat in the chosen size.

you will leave with a finished set of coasters, table mats or a doormat you made during this workshop. and most importantly, you will leave with the skills to be able to make them again as a gift for your loved ones, or to decorate your own home.

The workshop is one day and a half (9 hours) in total delivered on two days.

It will begin on a Friday afternoon the 1st of May. This first session will be from 2-5pm with a tea/coffee break at 3.30pm.

The workshop will continue on Sunday morning from 10am -1pm (with a tea/coffee break at 11.30am) followed by a lunch break. Then the workshop concludes with an afternoon session from 2-5pm (with a tea/coffee break at 3.30pm).

All tools and materials are provided during the workshops and you can take home with you what you make. If you came to previous workshops, I hope you are assured that we will have plenty of new techniques and ideas for your hands to explore as well as practicing your existing rope making and knot tying skills.

All abilities are welcome, both more experienced crafters and those who are complete beginners at making things by hand. I am confident to meet you right where you are, help you get started and tailor the workshop to suit your skill level.

I look forward to teaching this workshop for the first time in Edale.
