Tatting Lace With Just Pastel Colors

Can you guess the book this one came from?

The center.

it will take 9 of these 

Interesting tip to remember about a picot gauge. 


With a ring, the gauge sits above the core of the ring.

With chains, the gauge sits below the core thread.
Well I was hurrying a bit and didn't un-spin my shuttle before making picot so some got a little twist
but I am going with the natural look ha ha ha  :)

from the book
"Mastering tatting, by Lindsay Rodgers"

  1. Great tip about gauge! Isn't it because you work the chains in Reverse Stitch (unflipped reverse order stitches)? I've not yet used a gauge on a RS chain - your tip will be very handy.
    Love the natural pastel look :-))

    1. Yes, it is just a funny feeling as you start to place the gauge,and you fiddle less with it, if you just can remember first ha ha ha 🤔
