Shuttle Tatting for Beginners - Transferring the Knot

แชร์
ฝัง
  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ต.ค. 2017
  • I hope this video with a large shuttle and satin cord will help make the transferring of the knot more clear and easier to understand for those who are finding it difficult to get started with shuttle tatting.
    The large shuttle I am using is a "Tatsy" which I have modified by adding a hook. I purchased mine from Handy Hands online.

    The best description/demonstration of shuttle tatting I've seen by far. Thank you! The larger cord & slow hand movements made this so much easier to follow. I've been limiting myself to needle tatting because I dipaired of ever being able to understand how shuttle tatting works. I think I've finally got it! 😁😘😘😘

    I'm just picking up tatting again after a long hiatus, and while transferring the knot came back to me easily, I couldn't remember how to handle the thread and shuttles efficiently. I was struggling all over the place, each knot a chore, until I found your video, and now the two halves of the stitches are coming along "zip-zip!" again. Thank you!

    I found this gadget (which I now know is a shuttle) at a secondhand store. I collect little odd items. I found out what it was and decided to see how it works. Having never done anything even remotely close to this, I used your video and was able to make 6 stitches. They're certainly not the best, but I did it. Thank you so much for your instructions!!! Now I have a new rabbit hole to go down. ☺️

    This is one of the best beginner shuttle tatting videos I've ever seen. I love the large cord. When I learned to shuttle tat I actually used a large cord so I could see and study the mechanics of the technique and learn what was happening. Your instructions are so clear and you move slow enough that people can actually see what is happening. I also love that your work surface is so clean and clear because it allows people to concentrate on what you are doing without being distracted with a lot of stuff in the background. Thank you for sharing. :)

My thread would just lock and I couldn't slide the knots to close make a ring. I watched video after video and I finally found yours. I can finally slide the knots and close a ring. I can finally learn tatting now that I can do the knots properly. Thank you!!

    You give wonderful instructions and slow enough to see exactly what you are doing. I tried shuttle tatting, really wanted to do that. Every time I tried to make a ring, it would not move. I finally gave up afted about 100 times of trying. I started needle tatting. It was much easier. At least I was able to.make the rings and chains. Thank you for the instruction. I will try shuttle again.

      Hi Jeanne, thank you so much for your comment as I'm always happy when someone tells me a video of mine helped them get a lightbulb moment! I wish you all the best in keeping to make progress with tatting.

    Thnd so much because some people do it too fast or use suck small string i couldn't tell what they were doing. I think most people that make tatting vids forget what's it like to start from the beginning... This was much more helpful

    Thank you for teaching without the burden of two separate threads. I was taught this method by a lifelong tatter years ago. When I recently purchased a DVD of instructions to brush up my skills, the method using a shuttle thread and a ball thread was giving me fits. I couldn't put my finger on why (how pun-ny) until I came across your video. Trying to keep tension this way is SO much easier. Perhaps later I'll find there are advantages to having a ball thread to contend with, but right now the only advantage I can think of would be needing less thread on the shuttle and thus fewer rewinds. My speed and stitch consistency will increase rapidly with your method, which will help me keep at it. I look forward to seeing more of your instruction... and THANK YOU AUNT RUTHIE for taking time out of your busy NS life to show your grateful US niece how to tie a knot.

    • @11Frivole
      @11Frivole  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your comment and as always, I'm very glad if you found this helpful. This was my first time doing a demo video with a larger shuttle and thick cord, hoping this would make things clearer. There are many many designs that require only one shuttle so there is no need to tackle shuttle and ball or two shuttles until you are ready to tat more complex designs. Good luck, I hope you keep making progress!

  • @suejames3208
    @suejames3208 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excellent tutorial! I have decided that the shuttle is easier than the needle method. Just waiting for my shuttle to arrive. Your explanation is so clear, thank you.

    • @11Frivole
      @11Frivole  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello Sue, glad you think so. I think maybe the learning curve with the shuttle is a bit steeper to start with but personally (and I know there are lots of needle tatting lovers out there!) I find shuttle tatting more versatile and flexible for all the techniques available. I also like working with pretty shuttles! I hope you enjoy yours when it arrives. :-)

    I never did this. I found a shuttle small metal one that must be vintage price on original was 29 cents by Susan Bates brand at a thrift shop. American made. Chester Conn. I was researching this to see what it was since I collect a lot of vintage things and Walla!!! Here I am. My grandmother made a lot of this type of lace in the form of doliy? which I have and use. I was always fascinated with lace and how much time and intricate it is. Love lacy table cloths too. Feels like home to me more so when I have them out. Great video explanation. Thank you. It is amazing how it is made.

    Thank you. You are the first person to tell me how to hold the shuttle in relation to how it is wound! I have watched many videos on how to transfer the knot without success. Now I just pull until the shuttle thread straightens completely and I know it has happened. I have been needle tatting for ages but just could not transfer the knot when trying to shuttle tat.
