Robin Perfetti

 

I love Robin Perfetti's designs. I also love hand-dyed thread. So, I've decided that I'm going to increase my bookmark stash using Robin's designs in Four Dozen Tatted Bookmarks and some of my hand-dyed threads.

This is Braid: One Ring from page 24 of Robin's book. The hand-dyed thread is one that was left on a Tatsy shuttle that I pulled out of one of my shuttle storage drawers. The tag is long gone, so I have no idea of the color name or who dyed it.

This one is Braid: Two Rings from page 26 of the book. If I had just a little more thread, I would have tatted at least one more pattern repeat. 

All in all, it was a pretty good tatting day!

Braid: Two Rings

Braid: Two Rings from Four Dozen Tatted Bookmarks by Robin Perfetti was a fun tat. I did forget to leave enough bare thread on a few rings, but I think it turned out okay. I used size 20 Lizbeth #127 Butterfly Breeze.

I'm going to have to look for my stash of bookmark sleeves. I think they're a great way to use tatted bookmarks. The tatting stays clean and neat, just the way I like it!
