Snowflakes

 Hi,

Happy hump day,  this post is a bit late but never mind better late than never,   It’s very cold here in the U.K.,  most parts of the U.K. have snow,  but so far we have only had a dusting of snow,  but very hard frost at night.   There is a storm coming in tomorrow night,  so I have rearranged Friday just in case we have a lot of snow and get cut off.

These are the snowflakes are from a pattern which CreaHelga tatting put on Facebook at the beginning of December for anyone to play with.

Thus snowflake has Josephine rings in the chains,

This snowflake  on each ring has picots starting with a very small picot increase in to the middle with a large picot and then going back around the ring decreasing in size.

 This snowflake has a large picot with a small picot and then joined on the other side of the small picot.  I am sure there’s a better name for this than a description 

This snowflake is completely different,   I did the ring as a chain and then did a small ring and a single split chain of 4 double stitches,  this was something Wally did a few years ago and I took the idea from her for several patterns I have done and designed   

I did enjoy playing with the pattern,  unfortunately I was rushed into hospital before Christmas  and then told to rest so I really never managed to do some more.  I will sometime in the future do some more 

Stay warm and safe in this bad weather
