Local live coders/pattern enthusiasts Lucy Cheesman, Ray Morrison and I have started a monthly ‘pattern club’ in Sheffield, dedicated to a different kinds of hands-on pattern making. The first two events were about live coding music, the last one in December 2022 was about Kumihimo braiding, and the next one in January 2023 will be about blackwork embroidery, lead by embroidery/creative tech expert Toni Buckby.
You can stay up to date by joining the mailing list via the website patternclub.org/sheffield.
We’re just getting started with this, but when things are a bit clearer we’ll be encouraging others to start local pattern clubs.
