Any advice?
I am teaching myself tatting, funnily enough for work, and so this is my new hobby for the next two months while I prepare a course and learn enough to teach an introduction to tatting to others. So far I have learned the basics, I think, by making these little rings with picots and chains.
I have a few areas where I’m a little confused though. First of all, are the joined picot’s really supposed to disappear the way they do in mine? Or am I doing something wrong?
Secondly, what do you do when you run out of yarn on the shuttle? Or when you are done doing chains and have that end connected to the ball? Do you just cut and knot the yarn onto the project wherever you need it to be? It feels a little unintuitive for me, and I would really appreciate advice and tips on what or who or where I should look at to understand this better.
I am going to try to attach photos of my little testers so far, and I thank you all in advance for your advice. I have been scrolling through previous posts and have been very inspired at the possibilities with this lovely art!
