GF, Denise, sent a nice e-mail telling me about Cathy Bryant's book, Tatting. She had so many wonderful things to say about it --- that I looked on line & found on alibris site. It is considered "complete beginner's guide to tatting" ; however, the information is very valuable (IMO) to those already tatting! The nice step-by-steps, illustrations, and even a few patterns. If you get the chance, give it a read.
Also, I recently acquired Tatting Lace 101 - Edging & Motif ideas
(ISBN978-4-529-05695-3. ) 80 pgs.
Beautiful photos. Excellent step-by-step & numbered diagrams.
Printed in Japan c.NIHON VOGUE-SHA 2017
Such a beautiful tatting shuttle. This is by Emiko, Japanese artist, "Winter Rose" painted (Clover brand) shuttle. 
The Tatting Corner in Anderson Indiana has them in stock. I don't think the photographs do justice to the artist!
