General

There are diffferent sorts of lace making. Tating (in dutch Frivolité) is certainly one of the most elegant.

Tatting is made bij little double knots. These knots are made by means of shuttles. A crochet-hook is needed to make the atttachments.

This site is made to show that tatting is not only known in the United States and England. In the Netherlands there are still people how know the way to tat.

On the site you can find the things I have made in the gallery. In the section Patterns you may find the patterns I made.
The section Project will be the thing I'm working on. Every time a round is finished I will publish it and ask for sugggestions for the next round.
At the end of a project I will publish the pattern in the pattern section.

In the last section questions and remarks will be published.


To introduce myself:

My name is Jan Voskes, I'm 58 years of age and (as you can see on the photo) I'm male.
I learned tatting from my grandfather some 40 years ago and took it up again in 2003.
