There was an egg still on the shuttles when Easter arrived. I've completed it by attaching the ends with metallic thread.
The plastic eggs are quite slippery I used tape to keep the tatting on as I strung the metallic thread then tweezers to remove it from the egg. To make it look better do front/backside tatting. Plus don't forget to give the whole thing a spray of water to block the tatting round the egg.
I have mentioned to others that I don't glue these eggs together and add a note or saying inside before. completing. Who knows when someone will drop / squeeze or open the egg to see the messages. Don't forget to add who tatted it and the date too.
I still have a few more to complete before my basket is done.
So pretty. I hope it’ll be a while before someone finds the note, since that’ll mean the egg is broken. Good idea though.
