The Bath Tatting Book

By P.P.

Book Overview

A quiet treasure revived for modern hands. A jolt of lace-soft beauty for curious crafters and devoted collectors alike. The Bath Tatting Book offers a clear, accessible ladder into a time-honoured craft: a practical lace making guide that reads as both technique manual and historical companion. It blends concise tatting technique guidance with gentle, beginner tatting projects, guiding you through needlework patterns and lace pattern instructions that feel like a private workshop in Victorian England. More than a how-to, it is a meditation on home craft projects, artefacts of Bath and Victorian England, and the enduring appeal of meticulous handiwork. This is more than a reprint: it is a restoration for today's hands and tomorrow's generations. The text speaks to hobbyists and crafters who crave authentic methods without losing modern clarity, inviting you to explore historical needlework techniques with confidence. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors, the book sits as a distinguished lace making classic, a window into a culture where patient labour and delicate design fused to create wearable art and home adornments. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A true artefact of bath England and the broader lace making tradition, this volume honours craft, curiosity, and the quiet radiance of well-made lace.
