Tatters need to empty shuttles every time to take up new projects
which may result in beautiful lace or motif patterns.
My emptying shuttles resulted in…………………

and another with two sold color threads.
My tatter friend Madhur reminded me that the motif which
What a coincidence, she also tatted the doily to empty the shuttles.
The first trial shows the bare thread over the center ring and shuttle

This pattern is tatted with Hidden Picot method for rings and
lock chain stitch method for joining the motifs.

This is not a test tatted pattern but hope you find it easy to tat.
Your valuable suggestions and comments are always welcome.
Wish you all……………..HAPPY TATTING..........
