Dear Barbara, Of course tatting cotton is all right. Lacemaking likes natural fibers and that includes cotton, linen, and silk. Tatting cotton is a nice firm, smooth thread (and comes in lots of yummy colors). You just need to be sure that your pricking is the right size for it.
There are no lace police. If it works for you, it works! Besides, if we never made an experiment we'd never learn anything new. Give it a whirl and tell us how you like it. Have fun with it, Patty Dowden Counting the hours (2) until I go to the airport for IOLI! -----Original Message----- From: barbara pierpont [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 1:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [lace] sage advice wanted Hello all, 1.
