Motifs

 Motifs

     I am not a fan of tatting motifs in a doily, especially a large doily.  This one has a lot of little sections.  I'll make is easier by hiding the ends as I go along.  I won't cut my ends, completely, until I am all done.  I don't want any ends working their way loose as I tat.

  1. So you sew them in but don’t cut the end off?

    1. Yes, I leave a little end, incase they try to work their way loose as I tat. Once I'm done tatting the doily and before I block it, I'll pull the ends tight (incase they worked their way loose, a little) then cut them.

    2. Ok, thanks. I’ve done that with knitting and crochet but not tatting.
