Tatted Edging Patterns
Today’s freebie includes instructions on shuttle tatting and eight pretty tatted edging patterns. Here’s a sample of one of them.
These tatting edging patterns come from a 1944 American Thread Company booklet titled Tatted & Crocheted Designs, Star Book 30.
I enjoy reading the introductions to these vintage booklets. The one for this booklet is no exception:
Ageless beauty of lace for your home — a touch of frosted white, crisp as the first snow flake, can be yours for so little effort, so little time. A romantic luncheon set to show off your treasured china — like a lace ruff around an old-fashioned nose-gay. Fragile and feminine doilies. A baby cap that will make a cherub look like a Gainsborough miniature. [Gainsborough was a painter of miniatures in the 1700’s.]
Tatting is a lovely art. The many exquisite designs in this book can be easily made.
