Well this was all I managed just before Christmas, which is so sad as I have the shuttles and thread to do more, but sadly no time in my busy life to do much tatting, or for that matter any other craft work. The pattern is called Chris' Broomstick Snowflake from Martha Ess's book 'Playing with picots'
With the top two snowflakes I wound two 80 threads together, the bottom two are size 20.
My new year resolution (which usually carriers on from year to year), is to be more tidier and do do more tatting!

There’s never enough time to do everything, but you have made excellent use of your tatting time!
ReplyDeleteThanks, going to make sure I make more time next year!
DeleteThese are adorable thanks for directing us how to find the pattern
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely book which does give another insight into picots, thanks for your comment. Another new year resolution is to keep up with everyone else's blogs!
DeleteGreat snowflakes!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteLife steals a lot of my tatting time too.
thanks, guess it is nice to have the variety in life, perhaps we would get bored if we tatted all day!
DeleteLovely snowflakes. Amazing how using different coloured thread makes the snowflakes look so different. Especially love the vibrant red.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and yours.
