Not sure AKTATTER: bottom left on this page had 5 more onion ring patterns http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2002/onion/onion.html AKTATTER: Judy do you menat how to make a picot on the needle? Cynthia: Maybe hand her a flat shuttle with size 80 thread and ask her to tat or crochet with it....? Aurora: lololol That was a stupid comment from someone that ignores the needleworks picotsnkeys: I think onion rings are a really neat technique Bernice: what is direct tat? picotsnkeys: when I tried them before though, they didn't look at all correct lol Judy: sorry, I thought daisy picots were on for today Aurora: Cyn, just a shuttle o a needle and thread n. 10, let's see what can do with it Shanan: they are Judy IsDihara: Yes, I also thought daisy picots were to lesson for today?

MaryR joined the chat 7 hours ago MaryR: Hi All AKTATTER: ok yes we are doing the daisy picot in just a moment bu for the needle tatter you will need 2 needlees Cynthia: yes I agree she is ignorant and probably stupid as well...I want a snappy comeback that will not insult her further...I will not stoop to matching wits with an ignoramus.... Aurora: Yes, today is Daisy picots, we're on Q&A Andrea: what is the catherine wheel join? AKTATTER: neither claudia, the onion ring join is a specific type of join picotsnkeys: Bernice- direct tat is maybe tatting directly onto the handkerchief? Cynthia: if anyone thinks of a good comeback then let me know...I'll appreciate it Bernice: I don't understand the dt? claudia: ah. ok georgia AKTATTER: it using the ball thread not the core thread Cynthia: back to my seat and quiet now.... Aurora: Cyn what is a comeback? an answer?

Bernice: So you tie the ends together like in the picotsnkeys: mmmmm....considering how insulting her remark is.....you will be hard pressed not to be insulting. lol AKTATTER: on the index for today, there is a referene link to t Mark Myer's how to page for the daisy picot on the needle AKTATTER: ww.georgiaseitz.com/2009​/markmyersdaisypicotssht​lndle.pdf AKTATTER: http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2009/markmyersdaisypicotsshtlndle.pdf Bernice: needle directins from Gale Marshall?

Aurora: ahhhhhhh That's another thing bette: great about the bag bette: had to run and get dinner i9n the oven AKTATTER: in step 2 Judy, instead os wrapping 1 ds (pink) on the second needle wrap 9d as is called for the pattern Judy: So nothing is threaded through the second needle? its just there to put stitches on? when do you thread it? I did look at this earlier. AKTATTER: then go back and wrap 2 ds on the first needle (green) AKTATTER: then go back to the second needle and wrap (pink) 9ds again AKTATTER: you have to alternte between the needles Aurora: Georgia, will we know who wins the contest today? AKTATTER: now bernice direct tatting means that you wrap the ds and do not tat them, you do not flip the stitch, it is liking wrapping the bottom half of a split ring Bernice: Do you start out with 2 cut pieces tied together or is on still attached to the ball? AKTATTER: Bernice, all needle tatting is direct tatting, i.e., wrapping the thread onto the foundation core AKTATTER: Yes Aurora we will know today Aurora: Yuppy!!!! claudia: which contest aurora? Bernice: I don't understand Tattnmary joined the chat 6 hours ago Bernice: So it is just doing it normal Aurora: Un concurso sobre un encaje, cualquiera, se evaluaba la ejecucion y tiene premio Lorna joined the chat 6 hours ago Cynthia: Bernice do you needle tat or shuttle tat? I missed something bette: guess i will have to look up my neddle tatting book got it several years ago at a machine knitting seminar AKTATTER: the tails should be secured together to keep the tension under control but the thread may still be attaached to the ball or if only doing a little of this style you may also use a cut thread Bernice: needle AKTATTER: right Bernice all needle tatting normal way = direct tatting or wrapping jenny joined the chat 6 hours ago AKTATTER: welcome Esther! AKTATTER: and Jenny and B and mary and Lorna and Mary Bernice: is the one attached to the ball 1 or 2? Esther joined the chat 6 hours ago Tattnmary: Cynthia, I got a message from you?

Tattnmary: Just didn't wnat to insult or do wrong Aurora: Hello to all :) Tattnmary: HI AK nstitcher: hello everyone Tattnmary: and all bette: hi Judy: Been looking at the diagrams. What does Mark mean when he says "behind". Does that mean you slide both needles into the same loop? or is it just the second thread that encircles both? AKTATTER: the first needle would be attached to the ball however andru andru, Ann Koester, Good Thunder, MN, US a AKTATTER: it is possible to keep them both attached it is just a matter of how much work in that technique you will be doing for our sample, both threads should be cut threads Aurora: . Lorna: Is there a link for today's lesson? picotsnkeys: k IsDihara: :. Judy: Ah. I can't do extended shuttle tatting -- left hand immediately aches. Short rings are Ok. Could I meld the needle and shuttle -- say keep the core needle and use a shuttle technique for the daisy picots?
