The ever popular Spinning wheel Glass mat By Mary Konior was crying out for me to tat it in Blue lagoon and it didn't disappoint me. It's a very easy (as long as you concentrate)pattern. Very easy to make a mistake too and I have made them all!!
This one was tatted in size 60 which I am beginning to love. My stash of 60 comprises entirely of my HDT so I do need to make more solids to give me a choice.
Tatted in 60 it's tiny! measures only 3 1/2 inches compared to almost 5 inches in size 20, it would be minute in 80, but I can understand why people like 80. Tatting in finer threads really does look much more intricate and lacy. I am beginning to feel that tatting with 20 is like tatting with string and 10 is positively like rope!
My favorite pattern in my favorite color... sigh! What a lovely sight!
ReplyDeleteso pretty!
ReplyDeleteOK, I couldn't resist any longer and had to buy some!! The colors remind me of summer - maybe if I tat something with it summer will arrive sooner here in New Hampshire!
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty! Those shades of blue and green really do look like tropical water on a warm day.
