Hello, I’m Lusine
I tat in the morning on a small balcony in Yerevan, with the light coming over the rose-coloured buildings and a cup of tea going cold on the rail. My aunt put a shuttle in my hand when I was nine, and I have rarely put it down.
I draw every pattern myself, tat the piece, then draw it again. Each pattern lists the level, the thread and the size, so you know what you are taking on. I film the work, and a new video comes every other Sunday.
Tatting for Beginners was clear and easy to follow. I used what I learned the same week.
Questions
Short answers on shipping, returns and downloads.
How do the patterns arrive?
After checkout you receive an email with a download link, and the same link is shown on the confirmation page. Everything is a PDF, and the diagrams print clearly on ordinary paper.
Is there merch?
Yes: tees, totes, mugs, cushions and beanies with my own drawings. Each is printed to order and shipped by Printful, and the cost and delivery time show at checkout.
How often does the letter come, and how do I leave?
One every other Sunday. Every email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom, and it works at once.
What do I need to start?
A shuttle, a ball of fine cotton thread and a pair of scissors. The free first guide shows what to look for in each.
Which pattern should I start with?
The patterns are listed from the easiest to the hardest, and the first one is free. If you can make a ring that closes, the bookmark is the next step.

Thread Notes
A short letter every other Sunday about one motif, one stitch and one thing the shuttle taught me.
