January 11th: Tatting Split Rings

Following the business meeting [see Agenda in your e-mail], the program will be on

Tatted Split Rings.

If you have done splint rings: please bring two shuttles, wound with two different colors and scissors. You may want to bring extra shuttles and thread to try the split ring pattern(s).

If you already know how to do split rings in tatting, Cathy will have two doodad patterns that use split rings and books with patterns that use split rings.

P.S. If interested, the 2014
