...tatting in my pocket

2 years back (huh, July again!) I posted a few of my verses on ‘Tatting in my Pocket’. On 3^rd of this month Noelene Lafferty – the originator – revived it in the Just Tatting group on facebook!
If you haven't, do check out all the new contributions members made there.

I wrote a new verse immediately …
((English teachers, please excuse the poor meter! ;-D))

I have simple Pony shuttles

Threads I have galore

With tatting in my pocket

I couldn't ask for more !

I also shared my old verses there. But it is so addicting – lines kept whirling in my head and even though I didn’t get around to sharing them on facebook, I’m doing them here now.

To save our ecosystem, I'd

like to plant many a tree

but with tatting in my pocket

I'm on a lace making spree !

Ma taught me cooking

Pa taught me cycling

with tatting in my pocket

my hands are always singing

And then some more ….

Sitting in the balcony

Watching monsoon shower

with tatting in my pocket

I ... have the Power

I don't need yoga

Nor do pranaayaam

Tatting in my pocket

Is my way to Dhyaan

And more recently in O’Claire de lune’s post on lace v/s tatting, this is what I posted

In the world of lace

Tatting has no place?!

Tatting is alive in my pocket

‘n’ will ne’er vanish without a trace.

The flower in the pics is an old prototype - the 3D Carnation. Tatting is alive and kicking !!!
