Pin It now!

E9 - The Blue Crab by Ninetta Caruso Nov2023

Hunting the last entire week or more has left me beady-eyed and addle-brained. And the very severe air pollution didn't help either. But I got it all done and  we can now proudly claim that our categorised Directories of patterns/models derived from Endrucks' 1920 book, ‘Die Schiffchen-Spitszen’, are all done! Yes, hunting for images to upload to the four new directories and update the older ones. We now have 15 Directories! How many patterns arose from the original 44? No idea! Why not take a peep at the new collections to see the wide range created by our talented tatters and designers?!

Snowflakes, Stars, Ice Drops Directory - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NKMYK3i4PI9pRmyotGCk5GkV2xcDS_hSgJfh322EQFQ/view

Angels and Tree Ornaments Directory -  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MVEEhKE79euDmOY65Es95rYihb5P9UcqmAJWG5qw4Ws/view

Figurines and Critters Directory - https://docs.google.com/document/d/17-IX1n-PsvBqdoVZRq8N9ja-TM6oHurNvI19z-IjuTk/view

You can find The Blue Crab pattern in this directory! direct pdf link - https://drive.google.com/file/d/13Rj9fNq6myV17M1vAk2OWJrsjT2rBVob/view

Edgings Directory - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AY5AMicLd72yzv_KIn8E61l-2XhIxu_NYgCmsdhIl8U/view

A short description for each directory is also included now, alongside the link. 

We may still face issues with a few models - Which category do they fall under? Well, we'll crawl across that bridge when we come to it.

The other task that kept me beady-eyed was updating the EP doc [Endrucks 1920 Project document - https://docs.google.com/document/d/17LEVftXweztBIOWh4sL4BB7bX65ssoOsOn4oXIgCepY/view].

Since the derivatives earlier displayed under 'Gallery of Possibilities' have been shifted to their respective directories, the 'Gallery' is now being used to showcase visuals of what/how word is being spread by our members... be it in the form of exhibits, publications, teaching, etc. 

It is our endeavour to keep the EPdoc for the reworked Original patterns only and as far as possible to shift all derivatives and variations/adaptations to other documents so that they do not become too large and unwieldy. I am still working on cleaning this up. I've made a rough list of the derivatives from each pattern and now to make a note/link to the respective category/directory in the EP doc. So some hunting is still called for; I'll get to it after basking in the sun and sands for a bit (it rained this morning hence this crab has cone out to play), giving my brain something else to focus on!

Hope you find patterns to tat for the coming holidays and then beyond!

Ninetta and I wish you happy tatting always! And we'd again like to thank all our original and new volunteers who keep this Project alive and kicking, clawing their way into collections!!!
