Welcome to My Tatting Library!

Welcome to My Tatting Library!
With my ever consuming love for all things tatting it seems only fitting that my tatting library would grow on a constant basis. The only way to keep track of these well loved tatting books is to keep an alphabetized index of them.
"Better yet," I thought to myself, "Why don't I share it with the online tatting community and they can add any thoughts or opinions about the book as they see fit."
Each book will have it's own blog post. If you happen to have one of these books feel free to share your own thoughts, comments, or reviews in the comment section of the blog post for that book!
Many thanks to:

for their permission to copy photos of book covers and link to their shops!

Special Thanks to:
Joanne from 1-2-3 Stitch
for sending me a photo of a book to use!
The businesses who have given me permission to copy photos and link to their shops are in no way giving me any financial compensation for doing this. My compensation is the satisfaction of getting an alphabetized index of my personal tatting library organized and sharing it with the online tatting community! This is only an index of my tatting library, only the cover of the book is shown.


Oh, and one last thing...
❄❅❆
None of these books are for sale or loan by me.
However, clicking on the photo of the book will very often take you to purchasing information from one of the shop owners.

Summary: This classic learn how booklet has changed from a large 50 page, black and white photo booklet published by "The Spool Cotton Company" to it's present form of color photos in a 65 page small booklet by "Coats & Clark". The subjects remain unchanged. It still presents step-by-step information on how to knit, crochet, tat, and do embroidery.
The more things change, the more they stay the same! ;)
Oh...and...yes, I do have one of each copy pictured above. Silly me!
While the current booklet may not be the very best tatting instruction around there was a time when it was just about the only instruction booklet for tatting around. It is a classic!


The book shown is part of an "Alphabetized Index of my Personal Tatting Library" and is not for sale by me. I receive no financial compensation from any book sellers for posting or linking to any shops. Feel free to leave your own comments or review about this book in the comments.
