"Boutique Tatting"

"Boutique Tatting" by Marilee Rockley

25 numbered pages, over 60 color photos, hints on working with beads, 11 patterns. Not all of the patterns require beads - 3 don't. There are 4 earrings, 1 pendant, 1 cross bookmark, a snowflake, 1 bracelet, 1 hair ribbon (which could also be a bookmark), and 2 challenging necklaces. There are detailed written instructions, and color photos with stitch counts indicated, but not drawn diagrams. This is a book for people who already know the basics of shuttle tatting. It is a soft cover book, 8.5 by 11 inches, stapled in the center, printed in U.S.A. on quality paper.

Available in my Etsy shop.



The above photos show some of the pages in "Boutique Tatting". Original designs and photos by Marilee Rockley.

If tatted in size 20 thread this doily will measure approximately 11" in diameter.

**If you want to tat this in HDT here is some helpful information:

If tatted in size 20, it will take 2 1/2 skeins total. 1 skein for the inner round and 1 and 1/2 for the outer round.

I don't have exact measurements for size 80 thread but it would be less.
