newbie alert
Hello! My name is Lindsay and I'm a multifaceted artist. I draw, sculpt, knit, sew, and a whole bunch of stuff in general. Before today, I had never even heard of tatting. My interest peaked immediately after I saw this photo over at craftzineblog
I'm now incredibly fascinated with tatting, and I've started watching a few tutorial videos on YouTube, but there really aren't a lot of resources. It seems like tatting isn't the most popular craft right now, so I'm having a very hard time finding instructional books. Could you guys help me out? I would really appreciate some book suggestions or any resources that would be helpful to beginners. (Oh, if only Debbie Stoller had a book on tatting..)
ALSO! I have a couple questions. How different is needle tatting from shuttle tatting? Is there a preferred method? Do you find that one is easier than the other?
Thanks! With any luck I'll be posting projects of my own here in the near future. :D
