Needle tatting from antique patterns, blogged here: dorkwithaneedle.com/?p=1004

I sew at 2 different areas and was tired of chasing my pincushion around, so I made one to fit tightly into a sewing drawer that I keep sitting on top of the cabinet. Works GREAT! The little thing on top has sand in it, for my needles.

44" wide x 45" long

took 4,000 yards of size 10 thread

Started in Nov 2004 & "finished" 3/17/07 (but still needs edging and blocking as of Dec 2007)

From the Helmshore Mills Textile Museum.

The thread is Knit-Cro-Sheen, almond pink, size 10. Crocheted with a Boye size 6 hook.

The design is by Mary Werst, "Exceptional" from Extra-Special Doilies, Leisure Arts Booklet #3588.

In this picture, I use a knitting needle size US1 to make the loops at the beginning.

I started with scrap thread that was about 30 to 32 inches in length.

Making rings might be a good use for any the scrap you might have!
