Sounds like it will be a great day. Sorry I won't be able to make it, but if I
am ever in your neck of the woods (quite likely since DH and I both love that
part of the country), I'll try to time a visit to coincide with one of your
regular meetings.

like. But, to get it to sit in my bangle I increased the size of the pattern
to 119% and carried on with it anyway.
Of course now I can see that

Hi Daphne and everyone
I thought you might like to know how I got on at the tatting workshop I went
to on Saturday. I enjoyed it very much and seem to have got on quite well,
better than the people sitting around me. I got on to doing a proper simple
pattern, just a bookmark with rings and
I taught my left handed friend to use the tatting shuttle.
My theory is, tatting is a two handed operation anyway.
So just do it like I am, and Cheryl learned without any trouble ...
Go figure.

Hello Sue and everyone
You've enlarged the pattern 119% so I'm thinking the thread size should be
increased by that. Brok 36/2 and E.C. 36/2 are 32 and 31 wraps
respectively. Doing the arithmetic, dividing the 32 by 1.19 I get 27-28
wraps for the slightly thicker thread. Now to find an accessible

One day I decided to test that theory by tatting
left-handed. It
Oh, Joy.
This brought back the day, years ago, when I tried to tat left

I did that once so that I could better understand what my new tatting students
were going through in the learning process. It was an interesting

Thank you folks,
Having sent the email, got one reply back suggesting I might put more
threads in. I did put an extra one in on the outside edge but not the

the whole thing will be too spidery thin for the best look.

I am left handed and learnt
Hi, all,
I'm left-handed and when I decided to learn how to tat years ago it never
occurred to me to learn other than left-handed. Several years later I
decided that was a mistake - it was too much trouble converting charts from
RH to LH - so I re-taught myself right-handed. Although both ways
I teach Tatting every month in a craft store on Main Street where I live. I am
left hand but I tat right handed and I teach right handed even to my students
that are left handed like me. I tell them that the fine motor moments are
actually done with the left hand. I just intact taught a left
