Tatting is the craft of making lace with a shuttle. Its charm lies in the repetition of simple motifs. This title traces the development of tatting from the eighteenth-century pastime of knotting, through its emergence as a craft in Victorian times, to modern innovations. It is illustrated with examples from museums and private collections.
Pam Palmer was for many years a tutor at the British College of Lace in Rugby and has made a video teaching tatting skills.
