Figure 4.

Figure 1—With shuttle in

right hand hold the end of

thread between the thumb andfirst finger of left hand. Laythe thread over all fingers, rais-

ing second or middle finger andbring thread back to end of

thread between thumb and first

finger; leave the thread overfingers to the left of loop, passthe shuttle through loop fromright to left and bring it outbetween loop and shuttle

thread as shown in illustration.

Figure 2—Lower second fin-

ger; stretch shuttle threadtight with a jerk and holdtight. The second or middlefinger of left hand must now beraised with the loop on it, this

forms left knot or first half of

double stitch. It is advisablefor a beginner to practice this

first movement for a time be-fore attempting the secondmovement of first stitch. Theknot is always formed with theloop thread on left hand. Thethread on the right hand,or shuttle thread, must bestretched tight when knot is

being formed. The shuttle

thread must be free to runthrough the knots made; this

is necessary to loosen or drawup rings.

Figure 3—The next move-ment or second half of first

stitch is made as follows:Leave the shuttle thread toright of loop, pass shuttle overand through loop from left toright as in illustration No. 3.

Stretch shuttle thread outtight, raise second finger of left

hand with loop on it and drawup second knot same as first

was made; this finishes first

double stitch. Now be sure

that the shuttle thread slips

freely through the knot.

Figure 4—HOW TO MAKEPICOT. Picots add a lacy ap-pearance to tatting designs andalso serve in joining different

parts of a design together. It

is not difficult to make picots

all one size after a little prac-

tice. However, beginners will

find a pin or crochet hook help-

ful to draw picots out to the

size desired. Picots are madeas follows : Make double stitch,

leave a short loop between the

first and next or second doublestitch. This, when drawn up,

forms a picot. See illustration

No. 4.

Page 7: Book No. 8631 ENLARGED B. C. DESIGNS FOR TATTING

Figure 5—After the desired

amount of double stitches andpicots have been made, takeloop from left hand and drawit up with shuttle thread as in-

dicated in illustration No. 5.

This forms first ring.

Figure 6—The first quarterof the next ring is now madeof double stitches and is joined

to side picot of first ring bybringing loop thread throughpicot with a pin or crochethook and passing shuttlethrough the loop. Draw upwith second finger same as

when making other stitches.

Finish ring with double stitches

and picots same as in first ring,

and draw up.

Figure 7 — To form half

circles, scallops and straight

lines in tatting it is necessaryto use two shuttles, or a ball of

thread and one shuttle, the sec-

ond shuttle thread being usedfor scallops and straight lines.

Begin by tying both threadstogether, hold knot betweenthumb and first finger of left

hand, make rings with first

shuttle and thread exactly the

same as in previous directions,

but when a straight line, scal-

lop or half circle is to be madeuse thread of second shuttle bybringing it over the fingers of

the left hand, which are held

in same position as before, andcatching it around the little

finger. Let the shuttle hangThen with the first shuttle

make the number of stitches

required. This is called a chain.

When ready to make rings

again drop thread of secondshuttle and make loop of

thread from first shuttle overfingers of left hand as before.
