When I saw this bracelet in the jewellery supplement to the South African magazine I buy every month, I thought it would be fun to tat a version. On the first attempt, I tatted the grey rings and chains and then interwove black mock rings and chains. It's messy and doesn't work. Second time around, I kept the grey ring open before tatting the black ring, but tied myself up in knots and tangles. Third time, I tatted and closed a grey ring and then tatted a black Self Closing Mock Ring and threaded that through the grey ring before closing, then tatted a grey chain and another grey ring. I think it could work.
Wow! I am impressed! That's very cool!

That's an interesting bracelet! I'm not sure that I could figure out how to tat something like that. I do like the colors you're using.
ReplyDeleteIf you have "celtic tatting" by Rosella Linden, p 6 has something like a SINGLE color...weaving them as you work might give you something helpful.
ReplyDeletewonderful idea. Congrats on getting it figured out.
ReplyDeleteLovely, very good job!
