TATTING is a form of hand made lace. Usually done with the aid of a shuttle or needle, it can also be done with just a spool of thread. Tatting, like most lace, is a series of knots that form patterns and shapes. Doilies, baby caps, edgings, place mats, purses and novelties can all be fashioned by tatting.
TATTING as a craft goes back hundreds of years, but like many crafts, it's popularity has peaked and waned over the years. In 1760, the famous artist Sir Joshua Reynolds painted "Portrait of Anne, Countess of Albemarle", and she is shown holding her tatting shuttle and ball of string. In the mid-1800's, it became extremely popular along with the many other Victorian ladies handcrafts, and patterns and ideas for tatting were published in the hand crafts magazines of the time.

   TATTING handbook from around the 1920's. Tatting goes many centuries back in history, and has been done using many styles of shuttles and needles.

 

   TATTING instructions.
   Tatting is not difficult, but many find it easier to learn from another tatter than from illustrations in a book.
