Lanyard 2016

I’ve had several people ask how I made the Lanyard from last week.

I hadn’t planned on writing it out but changed my mind.  This is my version of a simple idea that tats up quickly.

I’ve added the drawing with text to my Patterns page.

It has been a busy week.  We’ve had a lot going on around the house as well as putting in a lot of overtime at work.  The only tatting I’ve done is not worth sharing; it’s not pretty.  I’ve been practicing cluny tatting.  One of the classes I’m taking at Tat Days in September is a cluny pattern.  Yes, I’ve made them before but only enough to say I know how to do them.  Now I would like them to look good as well.  I can’t say they look good yet but it doesn’t take me as long now to make them.

I have a lot of ideas of things I would like to tat.  Now I’m trying to make the time to do them.  Hopefully when I have the energy to do them and not just think about them.

  1. Thank you for sharing you pattern, looks so easy and will look great when you go to tat days
    I am laughing at your quote on the end, thanks I needed a laugh

    1. It is easy, just rings and chains but a little bit different configuration. I’m glad I could lift your spirits a bit today.
