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.
The thread is labelled as a size 20 but it seems a lot, lot thicker. This bird is about 5 inches tall. This toucan pattern is by Jane Eborall. It still fits the square so I will use it in the patchwork blanket.
Great pattern! And again, excellent tatting! So glad it's the right size for your blanket project! It is interesting that some threads of the same 'size' seem thicker or thinner. Usually the black threads seem to be thicker - possibly the dyeing process?
It looks adorable! I feel like darker threads are thicker... something to do with the dye?
ReplyDeleteGreat toucan, it looks quite majestic!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, there's a lot of split rings in there. Very cool toucan!
ReplyDeleteLovely bird,
