Vapor Stitch

One of the classes I took in Spokane was called "All Geared Up". Natalie Rogers taught how to do the Vapor Stitch. Natalie found the instructions for this stitch on Ninetta Caruso blog and created a pattern for this steampunk inspiration.  This stitch can be used to create a corner in tatting which is actually a little curled stitch.

Natalie says she creates a vapor stitch then does a lock join then another vapor stitch to get the stitch to look like it wraps around a corner.  I need to try that next.
