I used virtually a whole ball of Milford Holiday Green to complete this round. That was with some experimenting and starting CTM twice on each rosette. I tried to wind on just enough for each round, but there were some extra bits wound onto cardboard, and some rosettes where I had to make a join.
That's a lot of tatting! I think that in all the years I've been tatting, I have completely used up no more than 3 or 4 balls - and two of those were on my hanky edging which gave me so much trouble. Your doily is looking very impressive.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous doily :). Love the colours :). Think I have a ball of that green somewhere. Must dig it out to use :).

That's just plain out-and-out beautiful. The colors look wonderful together and those bits of Celtic weaving make it so interesting.
