Hang them on Christmas tree branches or evergreen boughs during the holiday season. Use them to dress up holiday packages or a holiday table centerpiece. Or frame these exquisite works of art and give them to friends and family as gifts at any season of the year. This excellent guide shows you how to tat 40 distinctive snowflake designs in many different sizes — each a model of elegant craftsmanship. Needlecraft designer Vida Sunderman has provided easy-to-follow instructions to help needleworkers bring each of these beautiful designs to a happy conclusion. Forty close-up photos show the completed designs, including two three-dimensional snowflakes and some enhanced with ribbons, beads, jewels, or glitter. Some of the designs are suitable for beginning tatters, while others require intermediate and advanced skill levels. Every one of them, when completed, will add a personal touch of elegance to the holiday season.
Tatted snowflakes, from simple to complex, tiny to large, plain to fancy. My only quibble is that I would have loved to see the snowflakes sorted from simplest to most complex.
On the other hand, if someone works their way from first to last flake, ending on a simple one is a relief.
Classic books that I already had in hard copy & wanted the e-version as well.
OH MY GOD!! This is the BEST collection of tatted snowflakes!!! I also crochet and have the 99 crochet snowflakes book. Together, this now southern woman has created the snow (minus the slush lol) that I missw so much from New England! Very easy, Very beautiful, Very well written!
This is a shuttle Tatting book. Good to know. Love the history included at the beginning of the book. Good instructions. I highly recommend if you want to make some beautiful snowflakes.
