 A good one for the tatting library January 12, 2006
A. OMALLEY (Minneapolis, MN USA)
This book has some great basic patterns. It's always a good standard to go back to when I need a quick pattern for something. The patterns are written long-hand, but are fairly easy to follow. The majority of the patterns are easy enough for beginner to intermediate tatters. Advanced tatters can modify the patterns to eliminate some cutting and tying. Overall a very good book.
Lovely tatting patterns July 1, 2005
Gillian Buchanan (London, UK)
This book is an absolute delight containing a huge selection of patterns by Monica Hahn. There are angels, bells, Christmas trees, snowflakes, doilies, bookmarks, collars, all sorts of things. Most are worked and shown in white, probably to facilitate the black and white photography used in the book, and the patterns are imaginative and interesting to work.
The patterns are written in longhand with no diagrams but the pattern writing language is clear and consistent. This is a book which will suit someone who has learnt the basics (although as usual with the Dover Publications books basic instructions are provided) and who wants a good range of patterns to work with. It represents good value for money and will provide many hours of tatting pleasure.

I'm just learning how to tat and found these patterns easy to follow. I'm working my way through the book with plans to make them all. I haven't learned to use a shuttle yet and am doing them with the needle tatting method and have been able to adapt the patterns without too much difficulty.
 not really my kind of book :-( January 3, 2003

This is the first tating bok I ever bought, and I have been quite disappointed with the patterns.
There's some angles and some snowflakes, but a lot of the patterns are "one shuttle" works and I just can't make those look right because I can somehow never get the "bits of thread between rings" to be the same length.
However the book has some very interesting patterns in it, like a 3d butterfly which I really want to make but since I have no clue of the english crocheting terms and those would be necessary to finish the butterfly I'm a little stuck *g*Anyway. if you're able to do "one shuttle work" really well and like stars and collars (3 of those in the book) this book might be just the thing for you :-)

I find the directions are difficult to follow. The patterns are pretty and useful. It takes extreme concentration to determine just what the author is asking when joining. I had to make 4 angels until I got it right which is not the case in other patterns I have followed.
