This year (in my mind) a very interesting new book of tatting patterns were published. In Danish it is called "Julehjerter i orkis" and it is by Lene Bjørn and containing 24 different tatted hearts.
Those baskets shaped as a heart is a traditional Danish Christmas ornament done in a special sort of paper and are first of all used on the Christmas tree but can also be found hanging in windows and lots of other places.
Later it got on the tree and in our national colours red and white - but it can be done in almost any colours though.
Merry Christmas to those who are reading this.

Hi, Happy Christmas and New year to you. Lovely hearts.
Where can the book be purchased?
Cheers, Jen
Maybe HH-Tatting have the book but I have not checked, sorry. And I bought mine in a Danish shop.
Where can I purchase these books? I contacted Handy Hands but they said that they can’t get them. Would love to purchase them. Thank you!
I have the book and love all the hearts. I can't read Danish and I'm wondering how she joins the back to the front? I guessing maybe with the picots from the first side done.
Barbara she joins them as she goes. I am sure it will work for you when you get started. I usually did the first side and then added the motifs of the second side joining them in the picots.
