Trouble!

Ratnawilis challenged me all weekend. This is one of Jon's from her Snowflake book.  Finally it cane together and is a wonderful design.  I love, love, love the look of the ruffle stitches.


Tatted in Lizbeth #20 -  old, very twisty, having several knots.

  7. So many lovely things about this snowflake! Wonderful design by Jon, especially the ruffled chains! And your tatting is beautiful. You would never know you struggled with this thread! I have many balls of Elizabeth but most are still sitting in their packages. So I have no idea if they have this 'twisting' problem. The balls I have used so far have been fine - and they date back to April 2009.

    I love this color thread. Is it "Pink Paradise"?

  8. Thank you, All!

    Kathy, I have no idea what colour it is, as I lost the tag a long time ago.

  9. The ripple effect in ths chains are nice. Lovely design by Jon and I love the colourway. I think it is Pink Parade #145 because I bought it in my last order of Lizbeth.

  11. Thanks for the reply about the thread color. I have many thread balls that have no tag! I also was amused to see I actually typed "Elizabeth"! Apparently my concentration slipped there!
