Wednesday, January 15, 1936 - Mother Showed Me How to Tat

 


"Mother showed me how to tat.  I think I can do it, but the thread I'm using seems to knot and break.  I started to make a calendar at school today.  I think I can finish it tomorrow.  I made my bed before I went to school.  I made it after school the last few days."


Tatting is a form of lacemaking, made with a shuttle or crochet hook.  Below is an illustration of a tatted collar:
