Hi everyone. I've been away for a couple of weeks. Just got back and straight away started on this lovely design which was at the top of my list. I was hoping to find time to tat while I was away but in the end, it was busy busy all the time so I didn't.
This is just the centre. Will post again very soon with the rest of it.
It does cup a little but it will be fine once the design is completed. I just thought it looked rather pretty curled up... flower-like...
Best wishes,
Frivole
Pretty start!! :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I wonder if you'll need to increase the long chains in Round 2 to 12 DS each. Round 2 is where most of the cupping occurs (in an effort to prevent it from ruffling once Round 3 is added). It should look like a little bowl after Round 2, but not too extreme.
ReplyDeleteI like the way the design flows. I had to look carefully to see how it was tatted. It's sort of a fool the eye pattern. Lovely tatting as always!
ReplyDeleteA very lovely start. I know what Diane means. My first thought was clover motifs in that round immediately followed by, "but that doesn't look right." Clever idea for a slightly different appearance. I really like it.
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely!
