SUMMARY- This booklet has a great photo sequence for creating the basic stitch using an oversize shuttle and cord so that it is easy to see what she's doing. I wish I'd had this book when I was teaching myself how to tat! There are a lot of nifty patterns packed in its pages as well. Patterns are fairly simple, but aren't broken down by step(you get block paragraphs for the patterns). This is a super beginner book.
