Kurbatskaya Challenge - WIP 5


This round is done and I am liking this doily a little better. I rather enjoyed tatting this round. Right now it measures about 10 inches across.

Next round is a single row of split rings and then more stars. Lots of cuts and ties. I am not sure if I want to tat this any further as it is just repeats of elements here just to make it larger. It's done!!

  5. I think you are right, it looks lovely as it is, more stars and rings yes it would be bigger but would it distort the loveliness of the pattern.

  8. Wow this is good and I am little confused, are you making this up, or where is this pattern found?

    1. No, I am not making it up as I tat. This is a pattern found in this book http://umintsuru.blogspot.sg/2014/01/russian-book-by-kurbatskaya.html

  9. It definitely looks complete to me! So unusual with those 'twisted' picots and wide scalloped edge! Beautiful color, too!
