# I taught myself to tat with a shuttle this evening!
Tatting is a form of lace making.
I already know the basics of needle tatting,
but Mom wants to learn how to use her granny's shuttle.
This means I needed to figure it out.

# This is one of the needlearts I have wanted to learn for a long time, but for some reason it just now clicked for me.
# Tatting is nothing more than a base thread used to hold hand manipulated knots.
# At one time this was a widely used handcraft to make thing from doylies to wedding dresses.
# Today it is rarely used form of lace making due to the time it takes to produce even a small product.
# it is so much easier to order something made by a machine.
