Tatting: Comparing fiber sizes


Blue Square Motif - Size 80 (lost label)
Dark Red Butterfly - Size 20, Lizbeth color 670
Round Motif - Size 40:   Lizbeth color 622

My trial(s) were created by me - to find a finer fiber that I could tat in order to complete a button.   Usually, I choose a size 20 fiber.   Wanted to try finer fibers.  I found the size 80 a challenge to control.    The 40 was easier for me to manage.   I wanted to tat a small motif and apply it to a covered button.   (without it looking clumsy.)
