Comely Corners

Karey wrote up patterns adapted from some vintage fragments of lace she found in an old tin at an antique sale. This is one of them.


As usual, I had difficulty with counting... there were several un-tats, (lucky the HDT from Yarnplayer was great to work with - #30) but it was worth it: such a lovely square bit of tatting.

  1. You beat me to it! I'm tatting this right now, doing it as a continuous tat with split rings and split chains.

    I think this is a lovely motif!
