DMC 19 Tatting Thread is a fine lace thread for shuttle or needle tatting and small crochet edgings that need crisp definition. Each 90 m ball (approximately 98 yd) in colour 743 is a smooth, tightly twisted thread suited to picots, motifs, and delicate edging on lace projects. Keep tension even, store the ball clean and dry, and test any washing method on a sample before laundering finished lacework.
