Angeline 's Travelling Book Adventure - All-In-One Square



This pattern is called All-in-One-Square of Easy Insertion found on page 190 of the book. I started with the black square then decided on the white one. Unfortunately I ran out of the Milford Size 40 white so I have to get more to continue. . . . or I could tat them in other colours.

This was tatted in one round using only shuttle thread. I think I left too large a gap in between the rings but I did try to keep it consistent throughout so it does look less compact than the picture in the book. Do you see the 'four-leaf clover' in the negative space in the centre?

  1. I am thrilled to see a pattern tatted from Angeline's book!

    You are the twelfth person to receive the book and the first to post something tatted from it!

    I would not have seen the negative space had you not pointed it out. I wonder how far you will go with this pattern.

    Also, of all the patterns to choose from, is it curious that you chose this one. I could not decide amongst the many when I had the book; therefore, I have not yet tatted anything from the book.

    Thanks for this post!

  2. Cool! I didn't see the clover until you mentioned it and I looked for it.

  3. Hi Fox,
    I chose this pattern because I thought it was interesting with all rings forming a square. It reminded me of Mary Konior's small butterfly pattern where she used all rings too http://umintsuru.blogspot.com/2010/03/butterfly-mk22.html

    Hi Gina,

    I noticed it from the photo in the book. I thought it was a pinwheel but after tatting it, mine looked more like a four leaf clover.

    Hi God's Kid,
    Thank you for always taking the time to leave a comment.
