I did manage to make a little fish but it was frustrating. I can do it your way! It's still a bit fiddly but I'm getting there! Thank for posting your video.<br /><br />Amy <br />BTW, I found you on ravelry in the she-knits group. I will be giving your podcast a listen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24271298.post-17908346340907591072010-11-17T22:14:07.965-05:002010-11-17T22:14:07.965-05:00StephieJo,

I just couldn't get the hang of the flip, so I searched youtube and tried everything I could until I got it. The video that worked for me was <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_JGTCju4G8<br /><br />Since then, I have changed the way I tat to the way you'll see most folks demonstrate. <br /><br />Your way does appear to be really efficient in the movements.StephieJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02433226687729913621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24271298.post-63165909443205226772010-11-12T16:54:11.269-05:002010-11-12T16:54:11.269-05:00aljones1954

I think I do find my "old-fashioned" way easier on my left elbow and hand. Since I was doing the newer to me method (as seen in most vid) I think my left inner elbow hurts more. <br /><br />Maybe I will post another video of my Reverse Riego for other to see, variety is good!Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14159443877006438794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24271298.post-36244701504721537802010-11-12T07:48:31.508-05:002010-11-12T07:48:31.508-05:00Thanks for the video.

Learn to Tat by Janette Baker. It comes with an interactive dvd and the lessons are very clear and easy to follow. There are 9 lessons and then several projects.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09149133378320280765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24271298.post-47382790919063727052010-11-09T06:51:13.125-05:002010-11-09T06:51:13.125-05:00I have seen someone else that like that, Arlene.

I saw it described as vertical versus the newer horizontal method seen more frequently. The reverse Riego is indeed what it is....makes me a very old lady but it works for me. I have tried the other method recently. I have mastered it pretty quickly but my hands feels better the old way.Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14159443877006438794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24271298.post-77512434154190756152010-11-08T22:31:00.913-05:002010-11-08T22:31:00.913-05:00There's another one or two videos on YouTube w...There's another one or two videos on YouTube where the tatter tats like that. I believe it is the Reverse Riego method. One of my students could not get the hang of tatting the way I do but I noticed her hands tended to automatically go like yours so I sent her to the youtube video I'd seen and told her to practice THAT way. LOL! I've tried it that way but it's awkward for me after tatting another way for years. Nice video.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.com
