I am still needle tatting

Getting better again guys. Anyone care to help me figure out why my chains sometimes have a gap. I am working on a doily I got from Abby in the exchange. It is called the "Amusement doily". I do not know what book it is from. I am just copying from hers (while ruining my eyes)As I said, I am wayyyyy better with my shuttles than the needle. I just had to try it again. Oddly, though I think I gave my self some carpal tunnel witht the shuttle, the needle hurts the tip of my fingers. Guess I am getting old!! (50). I will post a picture later of my tatting needle project.

I think that is so funny and we hear it all the time don't we. Whatever you start on you like best! My fingers hurt because of the way I hold it. I squeeze very hard on the needle for some reason and it presses the back of my thumb. It is getting better.
