Tiny star OR snowflake


First of all a notice to the 19 ‘anonymous’ people who left comments on yesterday’s blog - don’t bother.  You won’t get published.  If I’ve accidentally deleted a genuine comment then I apologise.  It is quite amusing to think that people who leave comments like those would even think they’d get past BC3’s eagle eyes!!

I did warn you that it was snowflake week and I bet you didn't believe me!!! 

This is another star/snowflake type motif that needed a new picture and, of course, that led to beads too!!!!

  1. One shuttle work? Did you know that Lindsay Rogers has published a new book of one shuttle patterns? I stumbled upon it whilst looking online for something else and bought it at once.

  2. No, Maureen, two!!! Those are split rings round the centre ring. That reminds me - I must drop Lindsay a line. She doesn’t ‘do’ the internet. I’ve seen the book and it looks good.

  5. I'm just now waking up and maybe I'm not thinking clearly.
    Am I correct that the center ring is tatted first, then you cut and hide at least one end? Then start the split rings for the 2nd round, attaching immediately to a picot on the center ring? Good practice for split rings and rings on chains. Clever! I do like the beads!

  6. Oh, Kathy, you know my aversion to tying and sewing in ends!!! The centre ring is made first and then a ‘lopsided’ split ring takes you out of the centre to start the final round!!! It’s an easy and fast tat. Promise.

  8. I knew I should have waited until I was fully awake! I now see the 5 picots on the center ring, then the Fvsp instructions on SR1. Such an amazing way to climb out! I knew you didn't cut and tie!
