Teneriffe Lace Ornament with Jasmine (Min) Davis

Date: Saturday November 21st, 2026

Time: 10:00am-2:00pm

Description: Learn the techniques of Teneriffe lace as you make your own unique snowflake decoration or ornament for the winter! Teneriffe lace, also known as nanduti or sol lace, is a needle lace technique done on a round warp to make unique and beautiful circular lace. These complex-looking laces are made using a simple knotting technique and can also incorporate needleweaving.

This workshop is considered “adventurous” beginner. Students should be able to know how to thread a needle, but it is helpful to note that this technique does use a larger embroidery needle.

This workshop is part of Contemporary Craft’s Gift Guide suite of workshops. Learn a skill and make a gift, all in one workshop!
