Tatting derives from the art of knotting, like macram�, which was popular throughout Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries. When it was discovered how to form a fabric with knots, it evolved into what became known as tatting. Worked with rather fine cotton in white, it makes an elegant lace for decorative edgings. (We carry DMC Cordonnet.) Needle Tatting can be described as "the use of a common darning needle to work tatting". The size of the needle as well as the thread, will determine the scale of the work.
