Braid Society Events Diary
If you wish to add a date to our diary, please contact chair@braidsociety.com
Dates in italics are courses and events
organized by Braid Society members acting privately (Please note that the
Braid Society cannot accept responsibility for these courses and events).
Our Come and Try days are friendly, informal meetings open to both members and non-members. It is your chance to get to meet society members in your area and try new aspects of braiding. It does not matter if you are a beginner at a technique or a skilled threads manipulator. We all can give and learn.
