Gwiazdka 1 Star

 


And so it begins.  This is the first pattern in a book gifted to me this year. (Thanks again JK)
It is a beautiful book called "Frywolitkowe Ozdoby Choinkowe or Tatting Christmas decorations.  When the book was ordered it had a personal greeting to me from the author Laura Bziukiewicz from Poland. There are 26 star or snowflakes, 6 Christmas Baubles, 5 Angels and 3 bells.

With a choice of  40 patterns I've started at the front of the book.  You can use the diagram or follow the written pattern to create the designs in the book.  I chose the diagram and pre-planned so as to climb out to additional rounds using split rings and split chains.  

This star was done using a vintage Coats size 30 thread and measures 4 inches or 10.5 cm across.  I'll try to block these better next time.
