Check out our Lace Making Kits, why not give it a try and purchase a Kit from the Online Shop      To the right is a Kenmare Lace sampler from a Kenmare Lace kit that can be purchased from our online shop. In the pictures you can see how the Lace Kit takes you through all the intricate stages of making a piece of kenmare lace from scratch.   The first and most important lesson is to learn the basic Kenmare Lace stitch which is the detached buttonhole stitch, step 4, filling 3. Then you will learn the variations on that stitch which builds up the pattern to make the larger designs you will soon be making.

 Pictured to the right is Emer Finnegan with Irish President Mary Robinson on her visit to Kenmare in June 1995. Here Emer shows her how Bobbin Lace is made. The president delays her schedule just a little to linger on in the Lace Shop and she is rewarded with an exquisit piece of Kenmare Lace on her departure.
