If you love crochet but are interested in branching out into something different, it might be time to try tatting! This fun technique has many similarities to crochet, especially to vintage crochet lace and thread crochet. The core difference is in the tool: you use shuttles in tatting instead of hooks. Shuttle tatting is the hand lace technique of tying double stitch knots onto a foundation thread that is shaped into rings and chains to form a lacy material. The double stitch is the same type of knot as the lark's head knot used in macrame. In shuttle tatting, the right hand is used to maneuver the shuttle around the thread on the left hand. The left hand is used to maneuver the thread that forms the stitches. The trick to tatting is to perform the movements made by the right and left hands in a continuous motion as you form the loops and tie the knots. This takes a little patience and practice. Once the basic steps are mastered, it is very easy. In this book "shuttle tatting guide", I will be teaching you everything you need to master the art of shuttle tatting. From the skills and techniques that you will learn from this book you can use tatting to create many different items such as doilies, earrings, necklaces, home decor, collars, flower medallion, Christmas tree e.t.c Click the buy now button to get your copy today!!!
