Hello again crafters! Once again, your crafty friend, Isabel, is back to share an interesting technique in jewelry making, Tatting. Now, I said interesting and I really mean it because unlike crochet, Tatting is not a popular kind of needlecraft here in the Philippines, especially with the new generations that even I don’t know how to tat.
I know how to crochet, though just the basics. Ladies from my maternal side knows how to crochet and other kinds of needlecraft. My mom lived in Arizona for 3 years in the 70s and she knows how to tat. I saw her once, tatting, but I wasn’t really interested learning it. But upon going “window web shopping” and saw this gorgeous looking piece of jewelry made from tatting, I began searching the pile of threads that we still have from our craft store.
And with utmost interest, I am excited to learn and try out
jewelry making using tatting techniques with...
