Alternate Thread Ring (ATR)
Teacher - Randy Houtz
Level III Shuttle
Description: Using two shuttles, we will be tatting samples to examine the fundamental aspects of tatting chain and ring alternately on a single ring. The ATR has the ability for picot over picot, ring over picot, and numerous picot variations. We will culminate class with conversion of the ATR to a split ring by adding a 3rd thread.
Skills required: Knowledgeable and proficient with tatting rings, chain, joins. Familiarity with self-closing mock rings, split rings, and pearl tatting helpful.
Materials needed / Pre-class preparation: 3 Shuttles, 3 contrast colors (i.e. green, yellow, blue), size 10.
Kit: No.
