Tatted bracelets / straps

 A mess on my table.  I've got Marilee Rockley's HDT Tourmaline, in size 10 -- once I make practice pieces, planning to make a lanyard with "Tourmaline" - I have 2 skeins.  My friend, Beth, gave me some beautiful beads - should be attractive once completed.


These are practice pieces -- from Tatted Wrist On Line Class, pattern + instruction


I used my magnetic shuttles from Handy Hands - Dreamlit for the 1st & 2nd patterns.  Probably would have been easier to use a shuttle w/hook for the 3rd pattern - ie, Dreamlit.

 
The Beaded Bracelet & Charms pattern, is available on the Twisted Picot web site.    As are the Wrist and Body Strap patterns - there are FOUR patterns included.

After a little practice piece (pink fiber) I started a Self Closing Mock Ring (w/beads) using Lizbeth Size 20, Col. 139 with a large Clover Brand Shuttle.   The size 20 pattern is a tad different from the size 10 pattern; however, I wanted a narrow tatted piece --

Looks like the fourth pattern is an interlocking piece. Maybe later - will get thru that one. 

 Eventually, will choose one of the patterns for Yarnplayer's HDT.  These patterns are for swivel lobster claws.

Intermediate Tatting - 2nd session

 In our 2nd session (zoom via The Lace Museum virtual education, we learned floating rings, split rings, self closing mock rings --and with the beads, can create a bracelet.    Also, suggested we use her patterns and add beads to our charms.  (stay tuned)

For practice pieces, I used Lizbeth size 20 - Color 622 & Color 614.

This is another practice 'tat' from our first session.  Learned A LOT.
I used Lizbeth, Size 20 Colors 622 + 614.

The Intermediate Tatting, two sessions (two hours per session),
are offered via zoom thru the Lace Museum, Virtual Education.  There are multiple classes/workshops listed - some holiday theme, too.

The first session covered a variety of tatting.   Josephine knots, Dot picots, Double and Triple picots, Lock joins, Zig zag chains ... with more to come (beads, floating rings, split rings, SCMR, etc.).  Then, you can practice what you've learned with the charm patterns - clip the charms to a bag, necklace, etc.
