Etymology

The term 'tatting' is believed to derive from the French word 'tatรฉe', which means to tat or to make lace by knotting. This technique traces back to the early 19th century in Europe, where it was used as a way to create delicate lace trims for garments and household items. While the exact origins are somewhat unclear, it is thought to have evolved from earlier lace-making techniques. Initially very popular among women of the Victorian era, tatting became a symbol of domesticity and femininity. Over the years, the craft has experienced various revivals, particularly in the 20th century, as crafters sought to preserve traditional skills. Today, tatting is celebrated both as a fine art and an accessible hobby, fostering a community of enthusiasts who continue to share patterns and techniques through workshops and online platforms.
