Meet members of the Norfolk Lacemakers and have a go at this ancient craft.

Norfolk Lacemakers offer a warm welcome to anyone interested in trying their hand at bobbin lacemaking.

This group of enthusiasts was set up in April 1979, so this year's Makers Festival marks their 45th anniversary!

One of their aims is to encourage as many people as possible to take up this ancient craft. Or to at least have a go!

Now's your chance! No experience necessary and any age welcome.
