Okay, I'm guilty! I've taken up a new needle craft: tatting. I'm needle tatting right now, and it's going great. I do think I'll learn with a shuttle too. First--it sounds fun, and second, I imagine that shuttles are more welcome on airplanes than 5 inch needles--blunt or not! I don't know why I always think of travel; I never actually go anywhere. Sigh.
