I am in love with Sign Language. Ever since I was a little girl I have loved this language. It has led me to my fascination and slight obsession with hands. I have an ever growing collection of hands. I was inspired by the website www.skulladay.com and decided I needed to start my own 365 day project. It took me awhile to get the nerve up to start but I thought the best day to begin would be on my 30th birthday so thanks for joining me on this long and wild journey.

Tatted, but not Torn
This latest hand is tatted. Never heard of tatting? Well most people haven't. It is kind of a lost art but is in the same category as crochet. I learned how to tat a few years ago from a little lady from Austria. She was so cute. I haven't tatted in a few years so I thought I might have forgotten, but like they say, it was like "riding a bike". I remembered with no problem. I made up this pattern and if I had more time, I would have tweaked it a bit more but since I only had today, this will have to do. I love the teeny tiny one the most. It probably took less than a minute but was really fun to make.
