colourplay explanation

The first attempt of the daisy hexagon was made in two colours. Then I thought it would be nice in 3 colours. So I thougt about the use of double shuttles. I have some, but I did not get them with me on my holydays. So I thought to take the two shuttles in my hand, as if it has been a double shuttle. As soon as I tried this, I discovered, that they are not necessary, because you can take all the threads you want inside a chain with non flipped double stitches, for the rings instead there is no need to take threads inside, because they turn to closure point. I hope this explanation will help you to comprehend how I did it.

My dear tatting friends, is there any other knotting, knitting or crocheting technique, with which you can obtain such a wonderful colour play?

I like the flowers, I like the daffodils

I like the flowers, I like the daffodils, I like the mountains, I like the rolling hills, I like the fireplace, when the light is low, daram da, daram da, dam da, daram da da da! This is not a daffodil, but I like this song

I love the Lizbeth yarn

Dear friends,
This is a pattern from my new book, which will be published soon.

I worked the pieces with the lovely Lizbeth yarn, which is really a great fun to work with!
