Course description

If you have always wanted to learn to make lace, not so much tablecloths and edge lace, but everything beautiful that the eyes can see, this is a good place to start. The course is aimed at beginners, but those who have already made lace can also join.

When registering, please state your skill level in the additional information, i.e. whether you are a beginner who knows the basics and has been making lace for a few years or an expert. The course will teach you the basics of lace making, prepare exercises, and progress to techniques from different countries in different subject areas as your skills develop.   For more information, including supplies, please see the course on the institute's website. The instructor is experienced lace making teacher and craftsman Heli Rämö-Kaija. For more information, please contact the teacher by phone at 040 5919149.

Teacher

Rämö-Kaija Heli

I am Heli Rämö-Kaija, a lace-making teacher, Artisan with supervision. My day job is a rifle assembler. I graduated as an Artisan from Kouvola Regional Vocational College in 2019 and have taught lace-making at several community colleges since then. I do a lot of different crafts, knitting, fabric weaving and lace-making, as well as various woodworks. In the summer, I cycle a lot of different kinds of hikes, swim and exercise in nature. In the winter, I go hiking, skiing and downhill skiing. I easily get excited about new things and I am also happy to share this joy of crafts with others. The best thing about teaching is when students are still learning new things years after the hobby began. In the course, students can make both traditional works and everything the eye can see using techniques from different countries. The only limit is your imagination. You can see my own and my students' works on Instagram.
