A Tat Different


Pretty excited to tat this motif.   It is
A Tat Different,
Designs by Betty Alderson of Snowgoose.

Special Feature in The NeedleWorker Magazine,
Spring 1999.

I used Lizbeth Size 20, off white +

I remember having a subscription to this magazine [no longer published, I think PieceWork bought it] and when this issue arrived in my P O Box, I wanted to tat.   Had no idea how to tat.   Just wanted to learn.    There is a 2nd pattern in the magazine, maybe I'll try that one, too.

Tatting


Rosemarie's Heart Pattern
c. Rosemarie Peel January 2007

I tatted with HDT by Marilee Rockley,
blogging at Yarnplayer.





I tatted the little heart with Lizbeth [size 20], based on

Three Little Hearts
Pattern by Grace Tan, updated January 2014.

GraceT blogs at:  Grace Tats.
Please visit her blog for patterns.




Regarding doodles, and patterns for doodles [or do-dats].    There are many on-line.   Most can be found:

Or, grab a shuttle with a couple yards of fiber & make up your own!
