Ive resolved the problem I was having with my tatting. I could make the rings, but when I went to close them they were sliding to the right instead of the left, so if there was more than one ring, there would end up being a 4 or 5 inch gap between them. I wasnt flipping the stitches from one strand of yarn to the other, and now that I have that down, Ive managed to add the ball yarn and complete a ring, with a chain, and then another ring. Now I need to learn how to do joins. 3 months ago

So I have the double stitch, Picot, and closing the first loop down. I need to learn how to flip the ring, chain and then start a new ring. 3 months ago

shuttle and thread. Plus, I paid for an online course I can follow step by step. I can already do the basic stitch rathyer hesitantly, but I want to learn enough to actually make a piece of jewelry or such. 10 months ago

How I did it: I watched several videos and bought a book on learning to Tat. I think it's a great mix between being challenging and mindless at the same time, with pretty results of course! Read how I did it… 12 months ago

So Ive picked this up again. I can make a single ring, and then start another chain, but the connecting through the picots never seem to work; I end up with a big knot. 13 months ago
