Nope. Not a shuttle. It is a plastic pin! But I liked it and wanted it for my tatting tote. A fun $5 find.
This lovely mug, with lace/button imprints was purchased at the Lubznik Art festival. The maker said she uses crochet lace to imprint the pieces. It is perfect in my sewing room. https://www.undertheglaze.com/
Lucky me with talented friends. GF Beth made this delightful scissor holder -- The specialty stitches are stunning!!!

Not much tatting to share .... My sister was here for a visit (August) and we visited many vintage stores, antique malls, 2nd hand places. The little clear box and drawers is fun for shuttles. These 2 shuttles were spotted (and purchased) by my sister.
My sister is great to shop with. She knows the good stuff from the not-so-great stuff, and has a good eye for value.
Isn't this cool? ($7 container) It looks like it is made from the same plastic as some of my tatting shuttles.
In the photo below, I made up some dish dresses for friends. A spring cleaning sort of gift!!! Knitting these charming dresses is a lot of fun.
