> Tatters? Knitters? Needle-lacers? Crocheters? Lace is lace is lace.....
For years I was a tatter with shuttle, thread and hook. I made quite lovely pieces All copied from a book. But then one day I came across A bobbin lacy braid. I tried the skill and caught the bug And was thrilled with what I made. So now I practice both the crafts, And each one has its place. The bobbin lace on pillow large Sits in my special place Where I can sit and lace away In quiet and solitude And concentrate on what I do All in a peaceful mood. But tatting's always with me I'd never venture out Without my bag of tatting Of that I have no doubt. It's there whenever waiting Would mean some time to spare. It's there to pick up any time And add to lace that's there. And yet from both these types of lace The end result's the same A piece of work so beautiful No matter what the name.
