The booklet used when I took 1st tatting instructions had both right and
left handed tatting.
I cannot locate the booklet now, but it was something like "Aunt Ellen"s
Tatting"and sold in craft store along with crochet and knitting books nead
the counter where hooks, needles and shuttles are sold.

Dear Lacemakers,
This is not official IOLI business. It is personal, and your participation
is optional. I have not heard of any plans similar to what is offered below.
I have started to make a list of lacemakers from beyond the U.S. coming to

Sorry. Somehow the version of my email I was working on sent itself, plus 2

I love bone bobbins, but the expression of my enthusiasm was curbed by a
vegetarian member of my lace class, who will not consider using or
collecting any bone items. Until then it hadn't occurred to me that anyone
could have an
objection to bone in general or even to bone from particular animals.

Liz,
The bone used for most bobbins is from beef/cow. You need to have
sections of bone that are straight and at least 4" (10mm) long and at
least 1/4" (6mm) in thickness along the entire length. So the bone needs
to come from an animal larger than lamb. I get bone from the pet store

Hello Ruth,
I have a folder of instructions/patterns for Paris lace which is very
good. It has a pale blue cover and is entitled Parijse Kant, Patronen
en technische tekeningen, by L. Ceulemans and N. Andries. I think that
it came from the Kantcentrum in Belgium. It is quite old now, 1986 but
I've got a few implements, crochet hooks and the like, that all appear to

exactly fool me). I have some ivory beads that are recent (bought through
legal channels around 15 years ago) and the difference is strik
