If you love tatted lace, jewellery, plants and anything handcrafted, come back often.
I will regularly post items that are made by me, plants that I grow and interesting things that I photograph.

Interlocking Rings
I am still getting it wrong. I have to try again but I did get the interlocking rings in a chain. I hope that is correct. Perhaps the thread gap is too long.
Very glad you're giving these a try! I'm going to do a supplement with some photos that may help clear up some issues for everyone.
In your top photo, the three rings in the center look like you're on the right track. You might try a 12-12 ring, as a bigger ring might help give you more room for six rings to be formed in a tight circle. The straight-line rings are interesting! However, you shouldn't have any gap when working them in a tight circle.
These little beasts are driving me mad!

ReplyDeleteI like the colors on top-they make me think of roses. :)

Well done on trying them, you are getting there, they are not easy, Jon has a great diagram on her blog which I found easy to follow.
