stringing patterns

Our kitty of derived and adapted patterns in the Endrucks 1920 Project is growing faster than we can process them! 2 more patterns are shared by one of our most prolific members, Reiko! These can be used as standalones or as motifs to connect for a larger piece.

Reiko Akamatsu aka Tatting Musica enjoys playing with arrangements be it the strings of tatted lace or notes on a violin. Get to know her a bit more - https://ninettacaruso.blogspot.com/2021/08/love-for-lace-music-and-nature-driven.html

Reiko's Ninth Symphony -

This central motif, with its sense of motion, is an original pattern by Reiko, and looks good as is.

But add to it a cleverly adapted pattern #5, and we have a possible flower, coaster, etc. 

Perfect to play around with!

Le Cirque -

This is an adapted arrangement of 2 of Endrucks'  patterns. 

In the center we have part of pattern #40 -  while it is constructed differently, the essence is maintained. 

The next round is pattern #1 with no changes.

This motif can be worked continuously if desired by exiting the last split ring at the appropriate point.

Incidentally, since there are 10 repeats, the rounds can be interchanged with the Happy Hands Sunflower (https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2021/03/happy-sunflowers.html ) for more variety.

We hope to add complete diagrams and written pattern in the coming months. For now, Reiko has graciously shared her drawings and notes along with some close-ups.

Many many thanks, Reiko, for your generous participation and inspiration! 

Let the music continue 💖
