I received an e-mail from American School of Needlework with an errata sheet for the Daffodil Doily from Learn to Tat by Janette Baker. I followed their corrections without question, because I know that I often read patterns incorrectly. My mistakes are usually operator errors! This is a picture of the doily through Round 3. The directions for Round 4 are still wrong. So, I'm going to tat another one using the corrections I listed in my Feb. 1 post. ASN is supposed to e-mail me with a new errata sheet once they finish reworking the whole pattern. I should have just trusted my instincts and done my own thing. I'd have another finished Daffodil Doily by now!
Still, I think this looks very pretty as it is, so I'm going to leave it be and count it as #9 of the 25 Motif Challenge. It's in size 20 Manuela and measures about 4" across.
Very pretty yellow daffodil. Go with those instincts!
ReplyDeleteWell, what you've done so far looks like a pretty yellow coaster! I can't tell from the photo what size it really is, so I could be WAYYYY off on that, LOL! It might be a GIGANTIC coaster or a little teeny tiny one, LOL!
ReplyDeleteGood for you you figuring out the pattern on your own. That is impressive. :)
How rewarding to be able to adapt on the fly when tatting. May I ask, how does one get erratas from the publisher; when one has purchased their book? Just curious. Because of sharing, I did get the errata from Jan S. book last year.
ReplyDeleteIt is a really pretty pattern and I was considering it since I finished the Valentine...but...I don't know if I could pull it off by 'compensating' LOL

That is so pretty! I love the bright gold color!
ReplyDeleteBright and happy! Come on, spring!
