I just found this video. I have taught myself to tat using mostly books but couldn’t figure out the folded join. I’m trying to finish a motif that is only rings, so the join is to the center of the motif.
Just want to add..... Learning about down joint and lock joint has given me an absolutely great satisfaction 👍.many many thanks and best wishes for u
Thank you and your so welcome

maureen hill Thank you for watching. I am so happy to help others with this. I love tatting so always learning new things and as I master them I share the techniques through the videos. I try to teach so it is easy to the viewers. Thank you again and Happy Tatting
Thanks for explaining so well in a pleasant way and at the same time teaching us ethics and extra knowledge of diff techniques adopted by other tatters☺️
Tasneem you are such a joy to me and you have come so far in your tatting journey to say I am so proud of you is not enough. You have overcome so many obstacles and look at you now. My heart just smiles every time you share your work with me. ❤
You're just unbelievable. You've joined my success in joining rings to success and joy!! I can never thank you enough. And I'm sure there are many like me. Regards from Mumbai.

+Angie Huang Thank you so much for watching. I am so happy I could help you to understand and master this technique. Happy tatting

Love your video. Big help for me!! Thank you
Your very welcome Judy!! Anytime you need help just let me know.
Just found your channel
Thank you for teaching how to join...down join
I know it’s been a while since this video was posted but is it possible for you to post the pattern for the motif you were making in the first half of the video. I thought I had it but I missed something. I’m still learning and prefer to be able to compare what I’ve made against a made item so I can see the goofs.
Vous vous compliquez bien la vie!Quand le picot de raccord est à gauche de l'anneau en cours,le raccord se fait tout- à- fait normalement. Il est nécessaire de plier le travail quand le picot se présente à droite du travail pour justement le positionner à gauche....Faites un raccord normal et ça ira tout aussi bien dans ce cas......
thank you so much for your great instruction
+ge foong Your very welcome
Excellant tutorial... How do you know when to use an up join and when to do a down join?? I am really new with this and my how to book doesn't explain any of this. Also do you always use the folded join when completing a round motif? Thank you
+Sdeaaz Dea Hello and thank you for watching. You usually use an upjoin unless your doing frontside/backside tatting. Then you will use the downjoin when your working the backside of the work. When completing a round motif more times than not you will use a folded join. The best way to see if it is needed is to lay the work out before you join to see where the join is going to come in at. if it is going to be directly beside the ring then yes a folded join is needed. you should come join us in class you will learn a great deal more. Here is the link to the class channel and on it has the direct links to join the classes. They are free to all who want to join. ua-cam.com/channels/ZYhtWspIadbX5RHY2Y1vTQ.html I hope to see you there. Happy Tatting
Your videos are fantastic! I am a beginner and trying to do front side back side tatting. I have been doing down joins. I need to do a lock join--would I do it the way you showed or would I pull it down instead of up before putting the shuttle through? Thanks for any help.
Hi Judy. To answer your question. It would depend if you needed an up join lock join or a down join lock join. When you do the lock join if you look at it closely it resembles a completed double stitch. If you want the join to match the stitches you would pull the join in the direction you need to accommodate the flow of the stitches. I hope that explains it better. But to be sure if the front of your stitches is facing you then you would pull up if they were facing on the back you would pull down. Remember a double stitch looks like a pair of pants with a waistband. If the waistband is facing you then you would pull up to keep it uniform. Thank you for your kind words as well. I enjoy helping others learn. Happy Tatting
Are you using the shuttle thread as the working thread on the joins? I'm doing the pattern 3-3-3-3 cl Rw. 5-5. Believe it or not, I actually got the first ring and the chain done (my very first) and now I'm stuck. The next ring , I can't get the thread on my left hand to slide either way. Can you help me?
Hi Leona. The shuttle thread is not only the core thread but also the working thread when making rings. If you cannot get the stitches to slide chances are one half of one of the stitches didn't flip. The advice I give is retro tat. That is a term tatters use for ripping out back to where the stitch didn't flip. They also call it frogging or ribbit. For ripping out. Just a bit of info for you as you may run into that at some point. Anyhow it is more than likely an un-flipped stitch. So try taking the stitches out but be careful not to split the ply on your thread. If you do a way to fix the blemish it causes is to put the blemish between your thumb and index finger and gently roll the thread back and forth to work the twist back in then run it through those 2 fingers a couple times and it will get it back into shape. Do this after you find the stitch that didn't flip and have removed it and before re-doing it. I hope that explains it for you if not please let me know. Happy Tatting
Thank you so much. I'm so proud of my very first ring and chain, all thanks to your UA-cam videos. I can't thank you enough.
Your very welcome Leona. So happy I could help. If you should need help with anything else please ask away. Happy Tatting
My goal is to turn out the quality of work that you do. So I need to practice, practice, practice. God bless
You will and soon too. I promise. God bless and have a wonderful weekend.

Hi, I'm tatted years ago but have decided to give it another go, but I am having difficulty getting my joins eg rings to chain and chains to ring, to sit flat. I don't have much internet to be able to go through long videos can you point me in the right direction. Thank you.
Hi Cathie. I will try to answer your question as best I can. It sounds as though your picots that you are joining to may be a little bigger than need be. I used to do that as well when I first started tatting. Then when it was done where the joins were it seemed to poke up. Since then I have learned to make my joining picots only big enough to get my crochet hook through. I know some shuttles have a pick type hook on the end and others have an actual hook on the end and of course some have nothing. I only use shuttles with a hook on the end. If they come with a pick then I just use a crochet hook to make my joins. Try that and see if that helps them to lay flat again. The other picots in the pattern are decorative picots and can vary in size or be the same size. Whatever the pattern calls for and if not specified use your own discretion. Hope this helps. Also in the near future I am going to be re-doing these videos and making them a bit shorter for the viewers like you that have limited time access. So look for those coming hopefully within the next month. Thanks for watching.
If it is a chain, the shuttle thread is used for the Lock Join. Is that correct? is the shuttle also used for a ring Lock join?
+Melanee Van Ee-Mortensen Hi Melanee, yes anytime your making a lock join you use the shuttle thread not the ball thread. The lock join is created by using the shuttle thread and when you pull the join into place it locks everything in place before the join. Make sure you have everything up snug because taking a lock join out is a real pain. There is another video on the shuttle class channel showing the lock join even better.Happy Tatting
Thanks! :-)
where I' can buy the clear shuttle?
hello and Thank you for watching. The clear shuttle is from Handy Hands. It is a Tatsy shuttle. here is the link for you. www.hhtatting.com/ Happy tatting
where did you get your big shuttle and I got rather try a big one that I little one together
Hi Trina, The shuttle is called a Tatsy Shuttle and I got these at Handy Hands tatting. Here is the link to there site. www.hhtatting.com/ Happy Tatting
Thanks, I want to ask same.. :D
***** Thanks for watching. I love the Tatsy shuttles because using the larger thread sizes the tatsy shuttle fits the bill for that. I have even used them with baby weight yarns just to see if they would tat up using the tatsy shuttles and sure enough it worked. However the little motif I tatted turned out to be the size of a small table doily. LOL. Happy Tatting
Thank you, I'll buy it :D
.
Were do you buy the large shuttles.
those are Tatsy shuttles. You can get them thru Handy Hands or The Tatting Corner. Both places are reliable sources.
what will the directions look like for a lock join?
+Sdeaaz Dea Hello and thank you for watching. Usually in the directions it will have LJ that means lock join. If the directions are not clear about this then the rule of thumb is that if the thread closest to the join is the shuttle 1 thread then that is a Lock join. I hope that explains it a bit better for you. If not then let me know. Happy Tatting
Hi. I found DVD under your name at handy hands website, does it have more tutorials than what is found on UA-cam?
Pls let me know.
Thanks
Hi Noni. I know of the video your speaking of it was put out by Georgia. I am not Georgia. I am the same person that does the videos for her classes, Tamie is my name. Georgia put the video out a few years ago as far as what is on the video what I do know is it is basic tatting techniques. If there is any other techniques other than the basic material I am unaware. you can contact Georgia about the video and she could tell you more. Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you in this. If you write her she will tell you what you can expect with the video in question. I know that everything I show on her channels was taught to me by her, Cynthia and Susan Fuller. I hope you do get the information you seek. Happy Tatting
