How it is made

One stitch, learned in an evening.
Everything after that is repetition.

Three clips, twelve seconds each, filmed on a lap. There is no hidden step.

1 Wind the shuttle. Four metres of size 20 cotton covers most small motifs.
2 Work the double stitch. Front half, back half, over and over. The lace grows a knot at a time.
3 Close the ring. Pull the core thread and the row of knots draws up into lace.

A shuttle and a ball of size 20 cotton is the whole shopping list for most of the library. Earrings and necklaces need findings, and the beaded chapter needs beads and a second shuttle. Nothing else, ever.

Find your reason to begin

Make something beautiful.
Make it mean something.

A quiet moment for yourself, a gift made with care, or a collection of pieces to sell. There is more than one reason to fall in love with tatting.

A little time that belongs to you

Give yourself a quieter kind of evening.

Put the phone aside, choose a small pattern and let your hands settle into the rhythm of rings and chains. Take it one step at a time, with something lovely taking shape in front of you.

  • Begin with a small motif or a delicate bookmark.
  • Keep your thread and shuttle in a little project pouch.
  • Create at your own pace, simply for the pleasure of it.

  • Choose from jewellery, bookmarks, motifs and edgings.
  • Make it personal with colours and finishing touches.
  • Add a handwritten note to tell the story behind the gift.

Why this craft

Four things people worry about.
None of them survive an evening.

Tatting has outlasted a lot of crafts for practical reasons rather than romantic ones. The practical part is what makes it stick.

I would buy a pile of supplies and never use them. A shuttle and one ball of size 20 cotton. That is the entire list for most of the library, and both fit in a coat pocket. Earrings need findings, the beaded chapter needs beads and a second shuttle, and that is where the shopping ends.
My hands are not steady enough for something that fine. The thread does the fine work, not your fingers. You are tying one knot at the size of a shoelace loop, over and over, then pulling the row closed. The lace only looks delicate after it is finished.
I have never once finished a craft project. A motif takes about twenty minutes. A pair of earrings takes an evening. Nothing in the library is a six week commitment, so there is nothing to abandon halfway and feel bad about later.
Nobody I know tats. Who do I ask when I get stuck? Every pattern carries a stitch diagram and written instructions on the same page, so you follow whichever one you read more easily rather than guessing at the other. Being the only tatter you know stops mattering once the page answers the question.

None of this asks for talent. It asks for one evening, and a shuttle you will still be using in ten years.

Before you buy

The questions people
actually ask.

Including the two most people would rather find out now than after paying.

Is this a physical product?

No. This is a digital download only. You receive PDF files. Nothing is posted to you, so there are no shuttles, no thread and no printed books in the post.

How do I receive the files?

A download link goes to your email address immediately after checkout, and it also appears on the order confirmation page, so you have it even if the email is slow. You can download the files as many times as you need.

Do I need a tatting shuttle to start?

Not necessarily. The bundle covers both shuttle tatting and needle tatting, so you can start with a tatting needle if that is what you already own. Both methods produce the same lace.

Is it suitable for a complete beginner?

Yes. The technique books begin with holding the thread and forming the double stitch, then build through rings, chains, picots and joins before any full project. The Quick-Start Guide takes you through one finished motif in five steps, so there is something in your hands the first evening.

Can I print the patterns?

Yes. The PDFs are formatted for standard home printing on A4 or US Letter, and they read equally well on a phone, tablet, laptop or e-reader if you would rather not print.

Can I sell the pieces I make from these patterns?

Yes. The included Commercial Use Licence grants you a non-exclusive right to sell the finished tatting you make yourself, at markets, in your own shop or to order. The pattern files themselves are a different matter: they stay yours to use and may not be resold, shared or redistributed.

What thread should I use?

Size 20 cotton crochet thread is the usual starting point. It is thick enough to see what your hands are doing and fine enough to look like lace. The included materials guide covers thread sizes, shuttle types, needle sizes, and the beads and findings the jewellery projects call for.

What currency will I be charged in?

Prices are set in British pounds and converted automatically based on where you are shopping from, so you see the price in your own currency before you buy and the charge is made in it too.
