Economics and tatting
Women love hobbies! Working women and noncareer women, young and mature, we all love to create, it is part of our nature to be creatative. With the economic changes we are experiencing what could fit into a tight budget better than tatting. A tatting shuttle and a spool of thread costs less than $10.00. With some time and creativity the $10.00 becomes a beautiful article to add to your home or give as a gift, which saves even more money by giving a special handmade gift rather than something found at a craft store. The money spent on the shuttle is an investment to be reused over and over again. In general one spool of thread can make two or three motifs.
If the economic crunch is pinching your pocket and you still have the urge to be creative, tatting is the perfect answer!
