Tatted Tidbits

A few weeks ago I was pleasantly surprised to find Lizbeth tatting thread at JoAnns. I used the color "Caribbean" to make this tatted snowflake from the Big Book of Tatting. It is the Dancing Snowflake on page 26. Lizbeth is the nicest thread I've ever tatted with, and I'm looking forward to using it again.

I finally starched this little bit of tatting. It's the Seed-Bead Earrings on page 24 of the Big Book of Tatting. I didn't actually make a pair of earrings - I just wanted to practice tatting with beads.

Blue Triangle Shawl

Yes, another Easy Triangle Shawl. If you don't count the break I took to make Christmas presents, this one went very quickly. I wasn't actually planning to make another shawl, but when my sister gave me two skeins of Homespun yarn, I knew exactly what to do with them! Thanks Grace.



I recently took the extra rows out of my purple shawl, as it was too long:


That should be the end of Easy Triangle Shawls for a while.
