Mimosa Earrings

This is a pattern called Mimosa from a Japanese book called Peikko by Takako Kitano. The patterns in this book are all very simple but I love the photography and the items created.
Above is my interpretation of the pattern tatted in Milford Size 40 in taupe.


And in Milford Size 40 in white.


The book cover (above) and the original mimosa necklace, earrings and bracelet in the book (below).

    I think it is tatted in green thread, Lily.

    Hi Diane,
    I don't know if it is a must have. All instructions are in Japanese and the diagrams with stitch count are rather small but it is a nice little book to browse through.
