I keep learning the bare minimum of tatting and then getting frustrated and giving up… This time I’m gonna stick with it! Please forgive all the horrendous mistakes lol.

Are Lisbeth and DMC the only people left making cordonnet? I’d really like to try more appropriate thread but it seems to barely exist!

    I keep doing the same but so far have completely failed to ever stick with it long enough to make something this big. For what it’s worth this absolute noob can’t see any obvious mistakes, it looks really cool from here :D

      Thanks!! Maybe now you’ll be inspired to pick it back up again 😊

      I think for me, the trouble was finally pushing through that sense of “this doesn’t look right” to just keep going anyway. All this thrift store crochet thread is just going to waste anyway, why not right?

        My problem is I do so many crafts, any that take actual practise are hard to make time for! But I do love the look of tatted doilies and suchlike, so just need to put my foot down with myself. Maybe that’s a new year resolution like macrame was for 2023…🤔

          There’s definitely something to be said for casting a wide net though!
