Thanks for making this video. I'm left asking myself how I've never known this before! 😊

i love the look of this, it just isn't easy to remember LOL.  I am very new and when i tried, i forgot to RW after my ring, so it still looked incomplete.  LOL  I will keep trying.   Thank You for your video, I have only been tatting a few days and am looking for beginner projects.

I started crocheting at the age of 5 with my granny. I wanted something new to learn as I bought a shuttle and just used the thread I already had to start practicing.  Now I feel comfortable shuttle tatting I have started needle tatting. The problem I have with needle tatting is when I turn it does not look smooth.  The last few stitches do not lay correctly.  I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I have looked for a needle tatting video on turning work but I can not follow the one I found.  I need one that takes me from ring to chain to ring to ring without a break in the work so I can figure out where I am turning the work the wrong way to cause the issue I have.
Thank you for all your wonderful videos. I have learned so much from you!
