Subject: [lace] Tatting info

I just purchased a tatting shuttle and will have to teach myself so the link
to the tatting videos is just what I was hoping to find as an aid. Many
thanks!

Hi Tatters

Good luck Darlene. I learnt tatting from a book and you will need to have
patience.  The trick is that you make the stitch with one thread, the other
being under tension, then you relax the tension (very important to do it NOW)
before taking up the tension on the other thread so that you end up with
thread that initially held the tension now making the knot. Once you have
cracked this everything else is easier.

Happy lacemaking

Alex
