Butterfly

When I visit Carollyn's Tatting Blog, I usually find some fun tatting to try.  Was looking for smallish pattern to empty some shuttles of fibers.   This pattern was on her blog, link HERE.  Butterfly was interesting to tat!  

Double wound tatting.  I used up fibers left on shuttles.    I ran short on the last chain!!!   Variation of the pattern (link above) found on Carollyn's Tatting blog.  (HWT - Hand Wound Thread)


   For this butterfly, pattern link above, I wound 2 shuttles with Anchor Mercer Crochet fiber.  And wound enough fiber to actually follow the pattern and complete.     I used Anchor [from the Tatting Corner] for the first time.   Wanted to give it a try as the color is so pretty!   
I found it very nice to tat with.

your butterfly is lovely i like the pattern it makes such a different one. I looked on the Tatting Corner website and couldn't find the thread. I've not found a U.S. supplier for this wonderful thread. Thanks :)
