    Geweldig! (= GREAT!). Had to look twice when you mentioned the pattern. Have tatted this myself a dozen times, but did not recognize it because of the colours! Super!

    It's pretty! You're good at combining variegated colors with solids!

    What's interesting is... that snowflake pattern looks a little different depending on the colors used.

    I tatted this in Neapolitan HDT from Lady Shuttle Maker, and it looked so beautiful.

    Then just recently, I tatted this same pattern in a mix of Lizbeth Falling Leaves and some Tridalia Christmas Green... Ugh, I thought it looked terrible! and it reminded me of circus clown colors.
    It also made certain aspects of the pattern stand out more than others, making it look a little different than the one in Neapolitan.

    Anyway, Falling Leaves and Christmas Green don't mix well together (in my op)
    But no matter what, I will always love this pattern
