I didn't cover Dora Young's method - that, too, can be done with a single shuttle, but you can have only 1 thrown ring on the first 'half' but multiple thrown rings in 2nd half.<br /><br />And as for your SCMR dilemma, remember, one doesn't have to follow a single technique throughout - try a combo as in the off-shoots I covered.<br />muskaanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13125166115615109271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725833531759425981.post-72677047136727849382016-07-30T21:19:00.277+05:302016-07-30T21:19:00.277+05:30Thank you, hugs from Carollyn :)Thank you, hugs from Carollyn :)Madtatter80https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047145271493817811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725833531759425981.post-5181844374388944682016-07-30T14:07:44.307+05:302016-07-30T14:07:44.307+05:30I think you'd not pull too tight at the end an...I think you'd not pull too tight at the end and block the 8 shape at the the end with your finger.

I've done the SCMR before, and it is very versatile, but sometimes I wish it would start at one end and finish at the other (like a split ring) so that a long succession of rings with thrown rings could be made in one pass. Looks like the loop tatted split ring is a good technique to use for that.Robin Perfettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03654207262189636771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725833531759425981.post-61146189536305817822016-07-30T06:49:03.117+05:302016-07-30T06:49:03.117+05:30So good to see you back, Carollyn !

I also could use the refresher on this and fun reminders on technique. I did think that tomorrow was last day of month and so I posted my pinchicks post a tad early, sorry about this I got sidetracked with so many other things and left the computer alone for a while. hope everything is going well and I feel like tatting again soon :)Madtatter80https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047145271493817811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725833531759425981.post-19340688190907397072016-07-29T20:49:54.288+05:302016-07-29T20:49:54.288+05:30Very useful, that helps a lot for the terminolgy t...Very useful, that helps a lot for the terminolgy that confuses me often!
