DIY Picot Gauge in 30 Seconds #FairyLacefromElena
A useful tatting tool doesn't have to be complicated — or expensive. Sometimes an old plastic card is all you need.
I like having picot gauges in different widths, because the size of a picot can make a real difference in the proportions of a lace design. Making several gauges from recycled plastic gives you a simple set of measuring tools that can be kept right beside your tatting supplies.
And the best part? This little DIY really does take about 30 seconds. ✂️🧵
