Hi Jane
LOL! Hurrah! Another oddball tatter! Oddballs of the world unite and tat happy!
) I agree…. my pointer is much more intelligent at providing tension and direction than my middle finger!

Hi Katherine
It did for me, too! My tendons used to shriek, until one day I noticed that I had unconsciously switched the way my left hand holds the thread/yarn. No more pain! Trying to do it with the middle finger extended just doesn’t work for me. Can’t do it, so I don’t… LOL!

But that’s exactly the way I hold my thread in rings, too. (I hold it almost like I’m crocheting for chains). The other way sure produced a lot of hand strain.

Well, that’s odd the way you tat!!! That’s the way I tat too!!! Does that make both of us odd?!?!? I find it so fast to do the slip and slide like that.
From one odd ball to another!!!
