Malene bookmark


Malene (pg 25 in Lene Bjorn's Tatted Bookmarks - Cross-shaped) is done in Milford Size 40 thread in white, measuring only 3.5 x 2.5 inches. I misread the pattern and made 4-4 chains when it should be 6-6 chains. no worries, I just continued with 4-4 and hoped for the best. It ended up well. Small and compact. Closing the rings was a little difficult because I tend to tat quite tight. Fortunately the Milford threads are quite strong and sturdy.

  2. Very nice tatting! I think dimpled rings are hard to close no matter what kind of tension is used.
