I'm still here! - Pomegranate Edging

There's been lots going on lately... not so much time to tat or blog!  But I have still made some progress on the pomegranate edging and delighted to say that I only have two more motifs to tat and I'm finished!

I used up nearly all of the 150 yards of Jess's HDT "Chilled Mess" in size 60 that I had purchased!  I thought I had loads but surprisingly no, so I'm glad I got the bigger skein.  There are just under 48 inches of lace.  A hanky doesn't look that big but you still need quite a bit of lace to go all the way around.



I hope I'll find the time to attach the lace to the hanky very soon so I can finally show you the completed project.

Best wishes,
Frivole

  1. your are right, you wouldn't think it takes that much, but if your hanky is 12" on a side, that is 48" of lace.
    That is going to look so good when it is finished. Good thing you had enough thread.

  2. I am not surprised as it is a fairly dense lace - double rings and deep. Very pretty. Lookng forward to seeing it completed.

    And the thread's colors are fabulous!

    I have got a sample pack of Lizbeth thread from Fox. You are right, It is very nice to tat with it :)
