Well I was playing around with different techniques and enjoyed the "Roll Tatting" or "Lupins" taught in Mary Konior's book, "Tatting with Visual Patterns". Instead of trying it on a ring, I tried it on a chain and that was hard to keep from unrolling. Maybe that's why she does not "roll tat" on a chain, in her book! I do love the look of Lupins and will try to incorporate them in my tatting later on.

I like this look--more substantial than just leaving a space, but still leaves a lot of negative space...I have that book, I might have to pull it out and give it a whirl! Thanks for the inspiration! :)
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely snowflake, your roll tatting gives the snowflake strength to hold the clovers, it has a lot of space which in this design looks nice.
