Illustrations of Tatting 
 
 
 For making tatting, use a strongly twisted thread 
 and a sliuttle. In winding tliread around shuttle, care 
 should be taken not to wind on too much thread at one 
 time, as it will cause the shuttle to gape apart at the 
 ends. 
 
 first half of the double stitch. Be careful in keeping 
 thread in right hand still while left hand is in motion — 
 the right hand, or shuttle thread must always be tree in 
 passing through the knots. 
 
 First position of the hands (Fig. 1) — Double st on 
 knots, take the end of thread between thumb and fore- 
 finger in left hand, holding shuttle in right hand, pass 
 the thread over the third and fourth fingers, draw it 
 back towards thumb and cross the two threads under 
 the fingers as shown in Fig. 1. Pass shuttle thread 
 around the little finger of right hand and draw the 
 shuttle as shown in illustration. 
 
 Fig. 2 
 
 Second and third positions of the hands (Fig. 2 and 
 3) — Pass the shuttle between the first and third fingers 
 as shown in Fig. 2, bring it out behind the loop where 
 
 Fig. 3 
 
 shuttle has been put through the loop. Beginners can 
 put right hand on the table with the thread firmly ex- 
 tended, leaving the left hand perfectly motionless. Raise 
 third finger of left hand to draw stitch which form the 
 
 MJG 19 1916 
 
 Fourth position of the hand (Fig. 4) — Hands resume 
 position as shown in Fig. 1. Figure 5 reproduces the 
 same, showing a few complete stitches. 
 
 Positions of the hand showing picot (Fig. 6) — Picots 
 are used in tatting, as in crochet or knitting, making 
 effective combinations where different parts of a pat- 
 tern are joined together; a little care is necessary in 
 getting the picots even. Illustration shows how to form 
 picot tatting with two shuttles (Fig. 7). Two shuttles 
 
 Fig. 6 
 
 are used in tatting when the rings are not to be con- 
 nected together at bottom by a thread or when you de- 
 sire to hide passage of thread to another cluster of 
 stitches or when threads of different color are used. 
 Working with two threads is called a chain. Working 
 with one thread is called a ring. When you work with 
 two shuttles, tie the two threads together, wind thread 
 around the little finger several times, leaving shuttle 
 
 hang down, using the other shuttle to make movements 
 as though you were working with only one shuttle. 
 
 The open picot — The open and closed picot are 
 formed by leaving a loop on extended thread as shown in 
 illustration. Closed picots are formed by drawing sts 
 close together.
