Almodt the first now heree, come i want to tat ☺️
Hi everyone, I'm excited to see how this tat-a-long will turn out. I might even try my hand in the work.
Newbie to shuttle tatting and excited to see if I can do this.
in reply to kersti's post:
Excellent! I can't wait to start!
Also, welcome to everyone! So nice to see familiar and new faces join the game.
I would like to join in.... mysteries are always fun!
Hi everyone! I'll try to keep up but other projects are still calling me, more than one of each craft on the go at a time is normally too much to keep track of for me.
One question, how many instalments will there be?
in reply to KT's post:
9 instalments and I'll space them to make it easy.
@KT either would work. I'm doing mine in a bit of both with variegated for the first few rounds and then plain.
The first round of clues is up!
I'm in too ladies!
I'm going to rework the pattern to point out decorative vs joining picots. I'll also add a downloadable pattern - these changes will be posted tonight.
Oh- I would love to do this- Always up for a tat along (OK- so I have only done one other one LOL) :) will load up a shuttle.
Sounds fun :). Will give it a go and try keep up :).
I've started with a needle but thinking I might do a shuttle version as well and see which turns out best... also twice the fun!
what is the reason for doing CTM? just wondering , like i said i'm new to this. Never done it and it sounds kinda wierd to me.
This will be my first Tat-a-long.. and my first Doily.. or is it a mystery what it will become. I will try to tat a long. Fingers crossed
If you use CTM from the start, you have no ends to bury at the beginning. Also, if you do CTM with 2 shuttles, you will have the ball separate to fill shuttles with when you need. If you work CTM with the ball, you may need to have a second ball to fill shuttles from.
