Greengal: So others have this problem too. Are there any standards for needles AKTATTER: for tatting needles there is no consistency that I have found AKTATTER: the best type and sizes are the 4 pack from LACIS AKTATTER: that set of 6 by Havell?? has eyes on them as big as button holes Greengal: So if I use one 5 for the main work and then throw a ring off in the other size 5 will there be too much difference in the tatting size AKTATTER: the set sold on ebay by a little crafter has the same problem with the eyes being too big AKTATTER: the only reaaly exceptional needle were the Ed Morin tatting needles but they were mostly for large size threads Greengal: Though I have one super fine that I cant even thread AKTATTER: that could be a definiteproblem, you need to get doubles of each size then AKTATTER: or AKTATTER: er....

AKTATTER: beading Greengal: I look at it and my brain doesnt work right. Greengal: I understand the knots perfectly on the needle but the shuttle my mind just curdles AKTATTER: well then in that case just double up on the needles from the same manufacturer AKTATTER: hm have you ever thought of the shuttle thread as being a flexible needle? AKTATTER: are you rofl?? Greengal: I think it has something to do with the ds forming on the other hand and us in Aust being upside down AKTATTER: good one lol Greengal: Have you got all your blocks in AKTATTER: got 58 so far 13 promised but that leaves 29 in limbo but I have faith!
