Another kit - well, this was actually from a handout in Mimi Dillman's class back in whenever at Palmetto Tat Days.
I wasn't a lover of clunies as I'd never really given them any practice but, having found the shuttles that I wound for Mimi's class - with a start on this motif in my blue box of kits I had to have another 'go'.
I started the original motif in a horrid colour in class because I always reckon that classes are for learning and I really, really needed to learn this technique properly. Which begs me to say that if you EVER get the chance to take one of Mimi's classes then please do.
I sat opposite Tim who very kindly gave me a cluny loom which he'd made on his 3D printer and you can see my post about that here.

That original motif and a few other false starts now live in landfill or recycling somewhere!!!! I eventually got the hang of the cluny thanks to this video and this page by mimi who I always think of as the Queen of the Clunies! I then headed for my favourite Lizbeth colour - Rainbow Taffy. This is the result - SUCCESS at last.
Now I can seriously say I like clunies and will be tackling another of Mimi's designs which is a bookmark.
