Interesting Interlude



Took a break after looking at Ninetta's blog here. Hew work is lovely - and correctly tatted!

I decided to give this pattern a try - not the whole thing! Just the centre for now. After all, I am waiting for the postman to deliver the Ben Fikkert book! I have plans...


I truly messed up in my repeats The added element made a tight and hard to control motif, but it sure is pretty!

The pattern is the one on the cover of this:
I do want to tat this in various colours...
