Hi Thanks for all your suggestions about tatting books and threads, and Jane Partridge's suggestion that I looked at the Arachne archive for replies from last time I asked this question. Interestingly three different people suggested the same book, so I think I shall try and get that one. And Brenda Paternoster supplied the answer to the question I had about thread. So thank you all again. I'm hoping to go on a workshop to learn tatting next month, so I might learn how to spend more time tatting than undoing and how to get picots the same size!
Alison in Colchester, Essex, UK where's its dull and warm at the moment but it's supposed to brighten up later Some weeks ago I asked for some advice about tatting books, as I wanted to try tatting again. I had some really helpful answers, I wrote them on a piece of paper intending to order my chosen book when I came back from holiday. Big mistake, I find I've deleted the emails and can't find the piece of paper! So I'm afraid I have to ask you all again about suggestions for good tatting books for a beginner. I've found some good websites (Ring of Tatters, Jane Eborall and Tatman) but would like a good 'how to do it' book. And also suggestions for good tatting thread. Our local needlecraft shop doesn't seem to stock the Coats cottons I was using before. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
