Do you want to see the evolution of my lacemaking skills?

No?

Too bad, because

From the first lesson to the most recent one.

Yes, this weird abstract mess

Is much more complex skill (or like, an effort) than the first one. It's awful but I like it anyways.

Also I've just finished this little guy

My crochet lace still looks much better (even unblocked as in the photo) but also crochet is not only much easier than tatting but I have also much more experience in it

You know how, for a long time we didn't know nålebinding existed and people thought that those red socks were knitted and it turned out they weren't, they were made by nålebinding, you just had to know very specific details to tell which craft they were made by?

(these socks:)

I know a little bit about a lot of different fiber arts. I know: knitting, crochet, spinning, tatting, bobbin lace, needle lace, embroidery, and a little nålebinding.

Inspired by these socks, I want to create the most archaeologically confounding frankendoily out of all my crafts, and then I want to immediately commit it to a bog, for preservation. A tatted motif at the center, with a bobbin lace round around it. Maybe there's a knitted border with a crochet edge. Some needle lace motifs hanging around, but like, I'm gonna mix Romanian point lace with Battenberg styles. Something's getting embroidered somewhere. Idk.

And I'm gonna make the whole thing out of the most historically generic white cotton thread I can find, something that could maybe have been used hundreds of years ago so you can't tell when the frankendoily was made. Maybe I'll even make it over different decades of my life. Also I'm left handed, but I can do most things right handed too, and some of the crafts look slightly different depending on which hand you used as your dominant hand.

And then the whole thing is going in a bog, because bogs are really specifically good at preserving cloth, and I will go quietly into the void at the end of my life, knowing I leave behind me a very specific kind of chaos and confusion for some very specific future kindred soul.

If anyone has any additional crafts I should learn for the frankendoily, I'm all ears.

Here's some of my tatting projects from 2022!

In August, my cousin had a baby, so I made baby slippers from an antique pattern (from Tatting Book No.13 by Anne Orr)

I also made a necklace with a black velvet ribbon for myself, and a bracelet version with flower beads for my best friend.

Throwback to these bookmarks I made a few years back - not only are they some of my favorite tatting I’ve done, these were also some of my favorite staged pictures I’ve ever taken for a crafting project! I can also do this lace pattern as a choker, which is what the last picture shows.

(I don’t have these listed on Etsy anymore, but if you want one, just message me - I’d be happy to make them again and set up the listing.)

The pattern for these is from Robin Perfetti’s bookmarks collection, but unfortunately her Etsy shop has not been up for a few years, so the collection is currently unavailable. You can still find her free patterns on her blog: http://tattingbythebay.blogspot.com/.

Sometimes I'll find a motif I love and just make a zillion of them.

At the local library makerspace 3D printing tatting lace shuttles

They have ended up smaller than I thought but they are usable and this is a free print anyways. I am making 3.

Do I know how to make tatting lace? No. But I will be trying now.

don't know if there are a lot of tatters on tumblr, but I'd love to know, what are your favorite threads to tat with in which sizes?

I usually use Aunt Lydia and Lizbeth crochet thread in size 10 and 20, and for metallic I use Lizbeth in 20 and Simthread around size 40 I think (from Amazon) and I prefer the Simthread over Lizbeth in metallic.

tbh I think I'm just looking for thread recommendations lmao as much as I love the color selection in Lizbeth, the smaller sizes especially just twist up so much if the rings aren't small. someone suggested I try using sewing thread but that's probably size 80-100 and the smallest I've used is size 40, so I'm working my way down.

#asked this on reddit too i'm just curious #tatting #shuttle tatting #needle tatting #tatting lace #idk what other tags to use lmao #ignore me

Made a lil bookmark! Can never have enough bookmarks.

(ID: two pictures of a red lace bookmark with tassel tail. One picture has it laying on a book and the other is a blank brown background.)

I don't understand how lace is made, but looking at the bobbins and pins and patterns … listen buddy I know math when I see it. This is A Math Thing. Obviously.
