Split Ring Tatting

In MORE Fun with Split Ring Tatting, Karen Bovard (The ShuttleSmith) has created a totally new look and approach to tatting using Split Ring Tatting technique. The designs are modern and focus on several themes: Use of multiple colors in one piece, Celtic inspired designs; and Lace-Tessellation inspired designs (free math lesson included). An introductory chapter is devoted to understanding how to read/use the Visual Patterns as well as tips for achieving Split Ring Tatting success. The end goal is to have 'Fun'! An entire chapter and tutorial is included for Needle Tatters: How to create Split Rings & Take-Off Rings using Needle Tatting Technique. This 63 page book features over 400 images: full-color photographs of finished pieces, working-path diagrams, additional design & color ideas, and over 45 visual (diagrammatic, color-coded) patterns that give even the novice tatter explicit information to execute these unique designs. Patterns can be easily manipulated to create bookmarks, edgings, pouches, etc in various sizes and shapes.
