I was looking for an edging pattern which was symmetrical and not too elaborate for a necklace. Found this one in my Japanese tatting book 'Tatting Lace'. I find patterns which are made up of all chains, very suitable for this purpose. No need to worry about running out of threads. I added some Delica beads for contrast but also to match the pendant. The thread is Lizbeth Size 20 Col: 506 / Silver. It looks more light grey than silver. The polymer clay pendant is also from Michelle of Woman in Bloom.
Wow - that is really pretty. Elegant.

Simple and yet elegant.
ReplyDeleteThe pendant is very unique.
Beautiful. The beads work nicely with it. I love this pattern. I've used to to make simple quick bookmarks.
