Making progress on the shuttle tatted choker/necklace/whatchamacallit. I've always been fascinated by lace making, but the bobbin and pin method is a) impossible to do on the go and b) a sensory nightmare with the clacking of bobbins against each other i was so happy when i discovered shuttle tatting, which eliminates both issues and is actually not that hard to learn. The stitches are structured pretty much like macrame knots and the patterns/diagrams are easy to follow. Even for me, and i can't stand reading patterns this is a free pattern i found online, originally meant to be attached as edging on a handkerchief.

Another one from my never-ending list of crafts: shuttle tatting! This is a ye olden maid kind of skill. It's tiny, finicky and not particularly forgiving. I love it
This is a shuttle and ball pattern, using my favourite Aerlit shuttle with the tiny hook. Gonna continue this pattern until it's choker length and either attach it lengthways to a velvet ribbon or just use a bit of silk ribbon in the back for closure. It'll be gifted to a dear friend who likes to dress up for ren fairs etc.
