Doing the Fandango!

After seeing Jane's blogpost yesterday about her new Fandango square pattern, I had a go at making one.  I like the effect you get with the two colours on this one - and particularly liked Jane's in pink and green.


Would be nice to play with this a bit more.  I think a few together would look interesting with the pattern that would emerge if you did it in two colours.

Right, back to the doily!

Best wishes,

  3. You beat me to it! I really like this pattern. Funnily enough, I just finished one that employs split rings all around the centre - very appealing.

  4. I'm thinking hard about doing more with this one. Beads, bling etc. Thanks for trying it, Frivole

    I could not leave you a comment the other day, but I wanted to say your tatting is always beautiful

  6. Thank you very much everyone. I'm sure many others will have a go at that little square, it's appealing and fairly quickly tatted.

  7. That is so attractive! I haven't tried split rings, they seem intimidating! (:

  8. Hi Anika,
    They're not as hard as they look, I would go ahead and give it a try! It's just the start of a ring as normal and then you make the second half with your other shuttle but without flipping the stitches. I bet it wouldn't take you long to master it.
