The following came about as a result of Georgia Seitz asking people to submit all the ways they knew on making a Split Ring. I told her that this was an original way - standing on my head! Mark Myers followed up with the cartoon! OK, silly but true!!
Jane's new way to tat a split ring. The eulogy by Georgia Seitz:
I remember Jane Eborall best for her tatting skills. I will never forget the day she taught me her secret technique of tatting a split ring while standing on her head! What an epiphany that was! And now there are hundreds, nay, thousands of tatters who owe a debt of gratitude to Jane for teaching them this useful technique. What a shame she never patented that technique! The funds generated from its use could well fund medical research and pay medical bills for all the tatters with broken fingers, and arms and legs acquired while practicing "Jane's Way." Jane will be missed every time I take an excedrin tablet for that awful headache I get from standing on my head tatting, but oh the rewards are worth all the pain. Every pain in the neck I get I will think of Jane
