About a decade ago my grandma told me about learning needle tatting from her grandmother, and she wondered if anyone still did it. We found the needles for it at Joanns, and a tutorial online and spent the afternoon following it together. It's a really special memory for me now that she's passed, and I'm sure she would have loved this one. Thanks for helping keep needle tatting alive with your content.

I shuttle tat. Shuttle tatting is best learned by being taught in person. The saying goes “..it’s the easiest to learn but harder to master.”. The big difference between needle tatting and shuttle tatting is that needle tatting is fairly new and there are tatting patterns that cannot be done with a needle. I encourage you to try shuttle tatting when you are ready. The Ring of Tatters out of England has a website that will give you support for both needle and shuttle tatting help, as well as dvid’s. The RoT has members all over the world and most of us are willing to help teach.

OMG I can't believe how fast you learn how to do different needlework. How do you keep from tangling up all that threads? I think I'll stick with learning how to make the doily. I'm still working on your fan for now. You just do such great work with all the threads. thank you

@SledDog5678 25 дней назад

Thank you. My Grandmother tatted. She tried to teach me but I couldn't "grasp" it. I couldn't SEE the half knot- full knot etc. That was around 1972. I was willed her sewing box and it has the shuttle in it. This needle tatting is clear to understand! If you can't visual the process, you can't grasp the techniques. I will learn on the needle and transfer to a shuttle....learning more from there. Thank you!

@Casinogirl56 26 дней назад

Thank you SO much for doing needle tatting. I can't shuttle tatting to save my life but love to needle tat. Love your amazing channel. *as an aside, I made a purse out of a motif you did a few months ago, and I got a first place at our fair, and was up for grand champion, but lost to a doily I made. So thank you so much. Everyone there was amazed at the pattern, I sent them your way.

@mermaidstears4897 26 дней назад

Oh I’m so excited! Needle tatting is something I’ve wanted to learn for years. Needle tatting actually dates back to the 1780’s, and one Confederate soldier sent home a tatting needle he made from a cedar tree in 1861.

@juliehay 9 дней назад

I am 74 years old and I've been in the possession of a shuttle and instruction books for 54 years, I've tried 3 or 4 times during all those years but found it exceedingly difficult to use a shuttle so I abandoned it for about 4 decades. Then I discovered needle tatting on RU-vid a couple of weeks ago. I can't thankyou enough for sharing your talent and explaining it very well, I'm still struggling but I will get there I just wanted to thankyou after so many years. At aged 20 I remembered seeing a young lady on the train tatting away click click clicking, so I went and bought a shuttle only to be disappointed at not being able to do it. So thankyou soooooo much.

@michellebruton6287 25 дней назад

"so that makes ... NONE" 😂😂 Am loving this, its like micro macrami meets embroidery. Tatting needles are on the looooong shopping list for Saturday - I live on a farm, 25 km's up the coast from the nearest little town, which has a nice yarn and craft shop, but still very limited. So now while I am visiting my son and D.I.L in Johannesburg for a few weeks I am gonna hit all those huge wonderful city shops for yarn, fabric and crafts with something akin to a religious fervour 😂😂

@thelibraryismyhappyplace1618 23 дня назад

Howzit👋 from a former Durbanite now in Melbourne. I lived in Jhb in the 90s and would get my crochet and knitting stuff in Fordsburg 😊

@lazykmountainhomestead3476 26 дней назад

I did shuttle tatting many moons ago. The lady who taught me I knew since I was 12, she died at age 104 and I was her hospice nurse. I wish I had her equipment now. Can't wait to try this, my brain's a little scrambled watching, but sure I can do it! That is for sharing this beautiful lost art!!!

@valeriesutton246 26 дней назад

Thank you, thank you, thank you. About 40 years ago I tried to tat with a shuttle and still have my shuttle somewhere safe. I was so confused on how to do it that I put it down for over 40 years. Now you are showing how to do needle tatting and I have a renewed interest in this art. I have ordered the needles and am looking forward to trying in again. So thank you for this easy to follow tutorial. Valerie

@3rdand105 25 дней назад

I learned to do this during the lockdown; I've been meaning to get back into it, but I don't have the time at present. As a continental knitter, I have the advantage when joining rings, as it's just like a knit stitch without the left needle. Incidentally, with a little forward thinking, you can join motifs through the picots, so no sewing involved, it's akin to crocheting a lacy tablecloth. Once you're really comfortable with this, I suggest you look into Armenian lace; it's done with just a sewing needle and thread, and the results are incredible! Thanks for the video!

@debbiehannah4817 6 дней назад

You’ve inspired me, I’ve bought the needles, a book and two balls of thread. So now to be brave and to try it out! Thank you so much

@catherinecran9329 25 дней назад

I didn’t want to start a new hobby yet here I am, becoming obsessed so thanks for that 😂 I just got into crocheting with thread and this seems so much easier than poking myself in the finger and having the thread slip off my hook with every single stitch lol

@juliehay 8 дней назад

Yay yay, I've done 2 of those now, and I'm really pleased, thankyou soooo much for teaching this, I've wanted to do this for over 50 years. So, thankyou ever so much. You're a good teacher.

@funniful 26 дней назад

Shut the front door! Tatting is just miniature macrame!! Those are larkshead knots! Wow…mind blown.

@witatter1 26 дней назад

You got it! There are other stitches such as Cluny and Josephine knots, but essentially it’s tiny macrame.

@donnasstitch-in-timecroche8903 26 дней назад

You have an amazing talent for picking up new techniques and teaching them to us. Today was the first time I’ve ever heard of needle tatting. I tried shuttle tatting many, many years ago. No joy. But you have given me the confidence to try needle tatting. After that maybe even shuttle tatting. Thanks so much. You do beautiful work.

grandma Blair pssed away before she could show mw how to shuttle tatt she made all kinds of beautiful things she made a collar foe a shirt she made for me and it was really pretty. so you inspire me to learn how to do needle tatting. thank you so much for sharing this with us may God BLES Syou and your family and you r sweet cute fur baby

@app103 26 дней назад

THANK YOU! I've always wanted to know how to tat, but all the books I tried to learn from made it too difficult to figure out. Your video makes it look easy.

@jinkamafrink 26 дней назад

Thank you for demystifying tatting for me!!! I crochet, and (kinda) knit but have always wondered how to tat! So much easier than I thought!!! My eyes are getting dim and I probably will never try it but at least I know how it works now! That is awesome! One more mystery in life solved!

@janiselliote5163 26 дней назад

@maryannraley 25 дней назад

I learned shuttle tatting from a friend many years ago, and then taught myself needle tatting (before You Tube!). I still prefer shuttle tatting. Shortly after I learned, I won a wager with my mom that ended with me getting my great-grandmother's bone shuttle ("If you can learn to make anything other than hard ugly knots - which is all I accomplished - I'll give you Grandmother Elizabeth's shuttle.") and some of her tatting. It's amazingly fine. Does this mean we'll be seeing Victorian tatting mysteries? I hope so!

@MamaMonsterPride 26 дней назад

Looking forward to this!Tatting is something I was interested in for years. When I had the time and resources to look into it I thought, “this is too much”, but you have a way of making things seem approachable ❤

@jinkamafrink 25 дней назад

Also one tip for you when the thread tries to knot up when pulling things through, just drop the needle, let it unwind and resume. This was something I learned when doing plastic canvas and counted cross stitch. You are welcome! LOL

@Lolino 26 дней назад

This is hilarious, I bought myself a tatting shuttle and some thread to learn how to do tatting yesterday!

@fee-bleue 21 день назад

I don't have any tatting needle, so before I order some, I tried with a long regular needle. Now my fingers are purple and sore, my hand looks like a foot, but inside of it, there is the most delicate flower I've ever done. How could I possibly thank you enough ? I'm so grateful for your channel and how it illuminates my days. Needless to say, I will buy those tatting needles asap... Have a nice day☀ ❤ from France.

I love needle tatting, I learned how back 20 plus years ago, Handy Hands (Barbera Fosters ) book is how I learned, after I joined an exchange group, one of the ladies directed me to Handy Hands, she asked if I could design and tat about 20 pieces and send them to her, the short of it is, she published my first book. I was so excited, I love crocheting 🧶 Barbie clothes and embellishing them with needle tatting, also great for cards, tatted butterflies and more, so much fun. Glad to see it’s made available online for anyone.

It's funny. I started with shuttle tatting. I'm self-taught. I learned to use a single shuttle and then 2 shuttles at the same time. I wasn't until much much later that I discovered needle tatting. I love both

@tara-mckenney1 26 дней назад

@lisaseverance6785 26 дней назад

I have that exact set of needles! I both shuttle and needle tat. Winding a shuttle is tedious so I can understand using the thinner thread for it. Though you can use the larger thread with the shuttle, you just have to wind and join more often. I did a test doing a small project with both methods to see the difference. I found that shuttle tatting was tighter so the project actually came out a little smaller. Shuttle tatting motions make it look like you are doing some kind of magic spell! LOL Love the video! Going to sit down and watch it closer when I am not working around the house!

@pamtrombley720 25 дней назад

Hi what an amazing craft, I crochet and I'd never heard of needle tatting. Now I'm definitely going to try it out 🥳💕

@audreydeneui192 12 дней назад

This is so cool! I have always been intimidated by tatting. Almost no one I knew of knew how to tat when I was growing up. My fourth grade teacher told our class about tatting (it came up as a minor point in a social studies book, for some reason) but she hadn't done it since she was our age (she was 70) and she was working with no needle or shuttle trying to demonstrate it. So that was the one craft in the green Red Heart book of "how to knit, crochet, tat and embroider" that I did not teach myself. Thank you so much!

@omaeve 12 дней назад

My grandmother shuttle tatted and my father-in-law made fishnets which I think is called netting and an elderly lady in her 90s showed me how she did it with a notched mat stick which I would say would be similar to a weaving shuttle but she did it with very tiny thread. I hope I can learn this. I’m 70 now and I always say I’m never too old to learn something new. You don’t explain the reason why you would prefer the needle tatting for your wrist. The base of my thumbs are extremely arthritic. Both of them have been damaged in accidents and I always have a point where I have to quit crocheting or knitting because the pain is just so bad so I can’t wait to try this.

@valerieprice1745 25 дней назад

I love needle tatting. I have a hand carved wood tatting shuttle, but I like needle tatting better. It's quick and easy. I believe tatting is what was used to decorate Victorian era sleeves and colars by applique, combined with embroidery.

@annemcginn1086 25 дней назад

I too would like to add my thanks - tatting is a needle craft I've wanted to try for a long time. Needle seems to be a lot easier ( well maybe that's down to the excellent tutorial) than shuttle. Can't wait to give it a try.

Hello Corrina, I think these tatting yarn pieces. Would look nice as Christmas ornaments. For the Christmas tree. Either in all white, or different colors. A hook could easily be put on to them to hang them on the tree. Thanks for this video it's very enjoyable to watch. Even though I don't have the eyesight to do this I still enjoy watching you make them. Thank you ♥️ great workmanship.

@cynthiahowe8697 26 дней назад

The double stitch is broken down into two half hitch knots. One left half hitch and one right half hitch. A Julienne knot is all one half hitch either all right ones or all left ones and it twists very nicely. I haven't tried to needle tat yet but want to try, there are some celtic knot pieces I want to do and the needle would be better to do them with than the shuttle. Oh, and to confuse it all up a bit English tatting does the half hitch knots backwards than American tatting. I do a complete ds after joining a picot not the second half of the knot. I also have used the half hitch knot to secure my horse's reins to a fence which I believe that is where the name of the knot comes from.

Thank you for this demonstration as we learn alongside you. My only prior experience with tatting was watching an expert level crafter at a fair demonstrating with a shuttle and because I'm sure it was muscle memory for her, I just couldn't wrap my head around what was actually being done from a technical standpoint. I'll consider giving this a try. It looks delightful for doilies, coasters, thread jewelry or decorative ornaments. Thanks again.

@Annie.C.61 21 день назад

This is such a delightful video and I'm so pleased I came across it. I did start needle tatting a couple of years ago but life kind of got in the way, especially this year which has been the year from h*@l so far. I have no idea where my needles have been put and finding them will mean a mammoth tidying up and clear out session, which, after watching this video, I now want to do 🙂 It will be lovely to take this up again so thank you for sharing this video. 🙂

I have tried tatting before, but I used an upholstery needle (ouch), just to see if I’d enjoy it. With a dozen different crafty hobbies I have yet to get back to it. However, I did purchase a shuttle to try, thinking it would be easier, and got discouraged. Thank you for linking the proper supplies, and you need an affiliate link😊. I look forward to learning old patterns with you.

Needle tatting was so, so much easier for me to start with. I still struggle (a LOT 😅) with shuttle tatting, but needle? Minimal learning curve. I actually started with a large embroidery type needle that I already owned, so now I'm struggling to get used to having a whole big needle to maneuver around 😂 I really want to get back to tatting - my goal is to make enough snowflakes to decorate my Christmas tree 😁

@katherinegolightly271 26 дней назад

Thanks for showing this. I am a shuttle tatter but I've never seen needle tatting done. I collect the old shuttles, and I know there is a modern shuttle available, but I like the antique ones. I had no idea tatting needles were available. With shuttles you can work with two for some very complex designs, making split rings etc... I wonder if needle tatting is more limited in the possible complexity? I've been crocheting so much I haven't done tatting for a while. One of the reasons why I often choose crochet over tatting is that to tat I have to count constantly in my head, while most crochet designs that I do require less focus on counting, or it just comes more naturally. If I tat in a social situation I inevitably make a mistake and tatting is not easy to correct.
