New Tatting

Modern Lace Motifs and Projects

Tomoko Morimoto

 

Tatting is a means of creating lace by looping threads together using tiny shuttles and one's fingers (with occasional help from a crochet hook). It creates dainty chains and edgings as well as single motifs and is used as edging and decorations for textiles and clothing, as jewelry, or as large-scale lace projects in itself. Tatting is getting new respect in the crafting world as people discover its traditional beauty while giving it a more modern
inflection.

With the growing interest in lace of all kinds, New Tatting is a fantastic book for getting started in this craft. Offering incredible step-by-step photos and beautiful projects, New Tatting explores modern color schemes and a fresh approach to tatting projects; it will appeal to people who have never tatted before as well as tatters looking for something new and interesting.

If you are interested in lace, you'll find New Tatting is your go-to book offering everything you need to get started.
