Tattingweed's Spring Onion Ring Doily Motif



This did not turn out right. The black and yellow one has only 5 repeats instead of 6 because I underestimated how much thread was needed. Tatted in Milford Size 20 Sunshine and Black. 

The second attempt did not turn out as expected as the small thrown rings should be joined to the same picot. Also the variegated thread did not work. Tatted in Lizbeth Size 20 in Coral Orange Medium Col. 702 and Rainbow Splash Col. 184.

I think I will try again using 2 solid colour threads because I love the pattern. This is the link to the pattern. If you like more of Tattingweed's patterns, consider getting her book here at Handy Hands or here at Lacis.

  1. If you had not said anything, I would have thought you just tried different ideas. They all look good to me.

  3. As much as I admire Tattingweed's lovely design (it's very unique!), I rather like your black and white star! Might even look good in red and green, or red and gold, or even blue and white, for Christmas!

  4. Interesting flower. Yes, I like the top version best, the variegated thread detracts from the pattern.
