It’s
really not difficult to sidetrack me! Happily so, as far as the actual tatting
goes. That my own work goes into pending, well nothing new there ;-D
I
used Anchor 20 thread and a 9mm pearl. My rings are 30ds each, but I could’ve
gone up to 32ds. My first try with 34ds ring didn't work out. Since the size of this Mercer crochet cotton is equivalent to a Lizbeth 10, it holds it's shape well.
Gold
finding wouldn’t gel with the midnight blue & pearl, hence it was converted into a pendant.
It took less than half an hour from start to finish!
TIP : Use a thread that slides easily since the rings are large.
One can add smaller beads to embellish the rings.
At
first glance they had reminded me of Ninetta’s giggly earrings which are a bit more elaborate, but the same principle is applied. Stacked or interlaced rings using a single shuttle.
Many
many thanks to Marina
for sharing her fun pattern.
You can find it on her Mad Zar Jwl page dated November 22, 2019.
