Victorian Trellis Doily

This is my 20th challenge for the 25 Motif Challenge. I have actually done trellis work before in my previous incarnation as a tatter. But that was an awfully long time ago and Frivole has updated the method for tatting this. Thanks for the very clear tutorial! Thanks to Frivole too for a link to the Priscilla Tatting Book edited by Julia Sanders. I own a copy of the book, but it's in storage, so I'm glad to have access to it online. I can work the rest of the doily from the online book.

    Wow you are busy. This really looks good, the twisted look is back. I think this put into a purse would be nice.

      I've been thinking along those lines too. It's quite stretchy, so you'd have to compensate for that in some way.
