Hexie

This is Lace-lovin' Librarian's Hexagon Ice Drop, which can be found here. I haven't used Josephine knots a great deal, but I like how they look here. I did round 3 before round 2, a trick I learnt from Nicola Bowersox's patterns, so that the gem doesn't need to go in until right at the end. It doesn't work with all patterns, I have to remember (!) but it works for this one.

  3. Very nicely done! I love it in the pink. I tend to tat the first one in the original order just so that I can see how everything will lie and to determine if the pattern is conducive to switching rounds 2 and 3. I agree that this one works well with switching the two rounds. An added bonus is that when I can switch the rounds, I can easily give the piece a shot of steam before encasing the glass gem, making a much nicer finished Ice Drop.

    1. Good idea to steam it before adding gem. Hmm, must remember that.
