hi! I just found your page, and you may be my life savers. I am trying to teach myself to tat, and right off the bat, I'm having a hard time. The book I'm working from is pretty clear and has good illustrations, however, i seem to be doing everyting backward. My knot, instead of having the treads facing my finger tip, and the loop facing my hand ( on the first half of a double stitch) is upside down, with the loop facing my finger, and tghe treads facing my hand.
After I complete both halves of the stitch, the stitch isn't on the bobin thread, but on the loop you put around your left and to start.... and so it goes.
Does anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong, or can you point me in the direction I need to find the answers?
Thanks.
