    Since I have been learning tatting, I have been noticing that the shuttles in these portraits are much larger. Now I understand the history and why. Very interesting.

    I’m grateful to you for making this video! I recently started tatting and I’d heard people saying that it had developed from knotting. I didn’t understand the difference because tatting is also making knots! Thank you! (Now I’m going to watch part 2)

    I'm reading a book containing the letters of Liselotte known as Madame, the wife of Philippe d'Orléans, King Louis XIV's brother, and in it she mentions the new fad of knotting in 1718. I wondered what that was and searched the term. This video came up in the search and provided me with so much wonderful information! I am very glad to have found it! I learned a lot today. Thank you!

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge. In the references I have seen they only mention overhand knots that are couched onto fabric. I wondered why that was done rather than embroidering a row of French knots. Now I understand. Thank you for your research.

    I know tatting and I've heard of knotting but never seen it demonstrated. Thank you for showing it to us. I'm curious too why this technique has been fazed out.

      I'm glad the video was useful 🥰Perhaps it was too time consuming for the actual end product? One can certainly see fads and trends of when some techniques come and go back in fashion thorught the last 300 years.

    I tat, but haven't done so in a while...so much going on...but this looks very like it...I wish you had been VERY much closer with the camera...or that you might use a much larger (bit of rope) to demonstrate the knots so we can see what they look like...and like tatting, it is difficult to find a use for such things...so a bit more about uses...and how to use it? I really appreciate that you are trying to teach this very old technique. I am by no means any kind of expert tatter...but these days with trims priced out of the market...one searches for ways to do for one's self.

    • @antiqueneedlework

      Unlike tatting this results in clumps of knots, not lace. The second part of the video shows it's original inteded use. To be applied as texture unto soft furnishings.

    • @antiqueneedlework
      @antiqueneedlework  Рік тому +1

      Привет Ольга! Я рада, что мои видео полезны. Основное различие между фриволите и узлами заключается в том, что они предназначены для нанесения на ткань и отличаются от узлов фриволите. Найденные мной книги о нем указаны в описании, извиняюсь за использование перевода. Дайте мне знать, чем я могу помочь

    Queen Elizabeth the first was said to knot. Is the knotting that she did the same as the 18th century knotting?

    • @antiqueneedlework
      @antiqueneedlework  2 роки тому

      The shuttle simply holds a length of thread, look for "bone knotting shuttle" on google. If thinner thread is used you could use a tatting shuttle. Shuttles are not indespensible, you could even use a spool to hold your thread.
