I've finished tatting Lenore English's
Celtic Bookmark in softer colours. It really isn't as difficult to tat as it may appear! I'm thinking of tweaking the pattern a bit more by shortening the short chains on the outer row. And perhaps using just two colours instead of three. Shortening the chains of the second layer, pink in this case, was certainly a good move.
I'll be interested to see how a "shortened chain" version comes out...this pattern is just not quite "tight" enough for me as written.
ReplyDeleteYes, it did seem to need tweaking.
Delete...looks nice...so springy...if that words is ok:)...
ReplyDeleteThanks, that word is excellent!
DeleteThat looks good Jane, I can see where shortening the 2nd row chains might require shortening the 3rd row as well. but your bookmark looks good.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! Reminds me of flowers bursting forth in springtime. :)
