As part of our ‘Day of Crafts’ series, this weekend you’ll have another chance to learn an old craft that was thought to have been forgotten. Our guest will be Veronika Illés, who will introduce us to the secrets of lace-making.

Veronika shows us how lace is made, or we can give it a go our dexterity.

Lace is a finely patterned fabric, characterised by the fact that the pattern is not applied to the finished fabric afterwards, but is created as the fabric is being made. The history of lace-making goes back a long way, and there are two basic types: sewn lace and bobbin lace. Lace-making has been included in the Hungarian Heritage Register and thus bears the title of ‘outstanding national treasure’.

At Katica Farm, alongside modern, environmentally conscious solutions, we consider it essential to preserve and practise traditions, and we hope you’ll be keen to join our lace-making programme. If you’d like to play as well as do some crafts, there are plenty of indoor activities and entertainment to choose from. Huge our indoor slide centre, our climbing walls and our wide range of indoor games They promise experiences you’ll remember for a lifetime.

 Don’t forget, we’re less than an hour’s drive from the southern shore of Lake Balaton. If you’ve had enough of Balaton, why not pop over to Patca, where more than 100 attractions await you, both indoors and outdoors.
