After fixing the offending motif I showed last time, I have now completed the inner neck edge. These motifs were all "Yoke Circle 1" and I am now done with that particular pattern. Only 41 motifs to go :/
I can't believe you're tackling this, and that you have come this far! Amazing! I would not have the patience to tat this intricate yoke! I always felt that several people worked on tatting these pieces from the old days, especially those luncheon sets with six mats and a central doily. Did anyone really serve food on those?

ReplyDeleteOnly... You're making good progress!
ReplyDelete41 seems like an awful lot! I guess you just take them one at a time and think about how beautiful the finished yoke will be!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're tackling this, and that you have come this far! Amazing! I would not have the patience to tat this intricate yoke!
ReplyDeleteI always felt that several people worked on tatting these pieces from the old days, especially those luncheon sets with six mats and a central doily. Did anyone really serve food on those?
I think I would be more than finished with it, looking good so far
ReplyDeleteFabulous progress!!! :) Looks wonderful!! :)
