Are you frustrated with shuttle tatting but still want to learn to tat?
Then needle tatting is for you.

Whereas Shuttle tatting can be complicated to learn, most people quickly acquire needle tatting skills
and are creating projects in no time.
Try following along with Barbara Fosters DVD.
There is really only one stitch to learn.
All the stitches are formed on a long sewing needle and then removed from the needle
to make rings and chains.
Pattern directions for needle tatting and shuttle tatting are identical.
Once you learn the basics, you can follow directions in all tatting books, even those that you uncover at antique shops or in the attic.

You will love this new hand art and the diverse creations that can be made
following these simple techniques.
