Signing UpStep 1: Josephine Knot
Start by threading your needle leaving about a six foot tail in the eye of the needle.
1.Make a ring of 3ds 1p 3ds 1p 3ds 1p 3ds. Close and reverse work
The Josephine knot is simply the first half of the double stitch repeated creating a spiral chain.
After every 10th stitch you will want to take the thread up and around the needle to maintain an even spiral.
For this design we will be making a Josephine knot chain of 60 stitches. Pull the thread through the needle as you would for a normal chain. Close and reverse work.

Thanks
Would anyone know where I can get them in Canada?
I just can't wait to try this stunning necklace of yours.
What material is Tatting thread made of?
Thank you so much for such a generous sharing of your talent with us it is so appreciated.
My mom saw it right before it was finished and she was jealous, so I'm going to make another one for her in black with beads (hopefully). Thanks for posting this with such clear pictures and instructions!
I love the design & completed it with no trouble at all with your easy to follow instructions.
Hats off to you!!!!
Then, I discovered needle tatting and your flower pendant tutorial. Last night, I sat down with a yarn darner needle and some crochet thread, read the flower pendant instructions, watched the video for it, and actually finished it!
After making about a half dozen of the flower pendants as practice, I went to a local craft shop and purchased a set of actual needle tatting needles and some nylon thread. Tonight, I'm confidently working on this pattern so I can proudly wear the necklace with my garb while I perform at my local Renaissance faire in a couple of months.
I sincerely cannot thank you enough for posting your patterns and tutorials! You helped me learn a craft that I've wanted to know how to do for 15 years!!!
