I tatted this based on a pattern on page 25 in the Japanese pattern book 'Tatting Lace Accessories' by Emiko Kitao. Swarovski crystal pearls in two colours were used. Tatted using Lizbeth Size 20 threads in Vineyard Harvest Col. 131.
You could wear this as a necklace but I actually made this for my reading glasses. I was a little bored after tatting so many animals and a little frustrated with the last tatting attempt.
That is beautiful!!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt will make a spectacular eyeglass cord!! :)
Love how the picots are on every so often very cute idea!
ReplyDeleteIt will look very pretty wearing it with your glasses, never to be lost again.
ReplyDeleteThis turned out great. The color of the pearls complements the thread very well.
ReplyDeleteA pretty way to keep track of your glasses.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like something I would enjoy tatting!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your comments. It was very relaxing after the last tatting blunder. I think I'll make the next chain with fewer picots as they tickle my neck.
