Everything You Wanted To Know But Couldn't Find Out About Shuttle Lace
An inexpensive craft to begin and reasonably easy to work - once you know how - tatting nevertheless can produce attractive and delicate items for a variety of uses. This book explains both shuttle and needle techniques by which the absolute beginner can tackle the craft. Having shown how to wind the shuttle or use the needle, considered different threads and then how to tat, the book progresses through simple starter patterns, working with two threads, pearl tatting and tatting with three threads, tatting with beads, and many other forms and styles. Particularly useful, in such an international craft, is a list of foreign phrases!
As the title states, this is a complete book which not only shows how, but offers over 100 designs, each graphically presented ranging from simple doodles to complex 3-dimensional bouquets.
