Before I start - number 111 of the Tat It And See has arrived. See it here.
Now there's quite a story behind this pattern. It was done originally for a book but the editor changed her mind after commissioning it.
I forgot all about it until one day Pigmini asked me about an edging picture that she'd seen on my site (before I changed it the last time)!!! I was puzzled as I didn't recognise it either!! So, after a search of my main computer I finally tracked it down and it was the reject one!!!
That's why it got re-named and is now known as 'The Forgotten Edging' - because the OG forgot all about it!!!!
I've just made the hanky below using it and must admit I really enjoyed making it. This one is worked in size 80 thread (Lizbeth) and it holds up well.
By that I mean that there's sufficient colour in it and it's firm. There are plentiful picots to join to the hanky (I always sew on after the edging is complete) and if you're crafty you can do SLT's (notated in the pattern) so that you never have to take the chain thread off your left hand. I'm lazy and proud of it!!!!!
It's also a simple pattern to remember - another bonus for my poor BC3!
