Trying to keep my hands busy, here are 4 squares, pattern by Susanne Rolf in her book, "Occhi - Tatting - Frivolite Mustersammlung." (She also publishes under the name Susanne Schwenke.) She designs very pretty patterns, many with some block tatting. In all her books, each pattern has a diagram, and is also written out in German. I worked from the diagram without trying to translate the text, and it worked out well. If you want to try to translate foreign patterns, Georgia has links to tatting terms in various languages HERE.
Working in size 20, each individual square is about 2 1/2 inches across. I haven't blocked it, just lightly pressed.
