Needle Tatting. The Secret to a True Mignonette
Have you ever wondered why some needle tatted Mignonette motifs look different from the traditional version?
The secret is simple: remove the thread from the needle before forming each ring, then insert it again after completing the double stitches. This preserves the authentic Mignonette structure with a single bare thread between the rings.
If the thread stays in the needle, the motif changes into a different variation with a double connecting thread.
Learn the traditional technique step by step in this short tutorial.
