Frivole's pattern uses needle tatting to make the interlocking rings and then shuttle tatting to do the outer rounds. That's very clever. But I know nothing about needle tatting, so I used interlocking self closing mock rings for the centre. Sue's tutorial for interlocking SCMRs is here. My first attempt is not perfect, but it does show that the motif can be done with shuttle only.
Annika's cardigan took more yarn and more time than I expected. It is now done, ready for winter.
Gorgeous motif and jumper :).
