Frances tatted Festiva, from Judith Connors Creative Tatting in silver with a slight modification of 9 rings to make a great Christmas ornament. The earrings in white were done with rings instead of beads so she could wear them at the shop She also made one in green with red beads as a Christmas wreath. Mary Konior's Bell Flowers were done as a set for her friend in red along with a leaf in green so that she could use them for decoration on her 'Red Hat' outfits. Ginny has been working on 24 Snowflakes in Tatting by Lene Bjorn so that next year she can have a tree in white snowflakes. Julie found this delicate piece of lace in her travels and couldn't resist it in spite of it's damaged corners and rust spots. Being busy doesn't leave much time for tatting anything except some flowers for the little lady. More tatting adorns the little one's shirt. These doilies are more treasures she discovered while travelling. Jessica is reworking her diagrams using a new program and is looking for some test tatters for a design to be used a the Shuttlebirds workshop. SunshineCraft's tatting spree resulted finished off a clover doily pattern by Eileen Stafford. Inspired by the header of the 25 motif challenge blog, she made a medallion, a snowflake, a heart, a bookmark, a butterfly, a pair of earrings and a small bit of tatting, but now she has lots and lots of ends to hide. IsDihara shares a picture of her recent projects; tatting to cover a lavender ball, the Broomstick Tatted Bookmark by Martha Ess in Lizbeth 20 Autumn Apple Pie #169 and a half-finished heart tatted in Lizbeth 20 Purple Iris Fusion #162. Cindy picked up the right size bead and took another stab at Marilee's teardrop pendant, but it still didn't work out quite right. She tried it again adjusting her tension, but it still isn't quite right, but it is better. Diane has finished the edging she wants to use on a purse. She wants something subtle that blends in with the fabric and this looks perfect. She started the same edging in Lizbeth olive green #678 size 20 so it's quite a bit larger. Fox has found that DMC size 30 thread is a better choice for sewing edgings on to socks that sewing thread especially when she has to sew onto the fold of the socks. She's also discovered that tatting the second edging of a pair takes discipline. The first one is fun, the second one is drudgery but here's the pair done. She also shows us the needle she uses and she wonders if other people have trouble using self threading needles with size 30 thread. Gina is tatting the Pineapple Square pattern by Camelia Crapo which is in a back issue of KNOTS. Kelly is still hobbling around, but being forced to sit down does make for more tatting time. She's tatting a motif from Tatting Patterns and Designs by Gun Blomqvist and Elwy Persson and joining them together, but she's not sure what it will eventually be. It's amazing how much finished tatting is gracing her coffee table. Martha has a new favorite bookmark which is actually a piece of Edging No. 21 from Die Schiffchen-Spitzen by Eleonore Endrucks-Leichtenstern, with block tatting of course. Mica is finally able to show is the large project she was working on that was started in 2009. It's a large centre piece done in DMC Cordonnet 100 and measures just over 14 inches in diameter and took nearly a whole ball of thread. Michelle has her first day of TIAS done and she has no idea what it is. Orsi has the wings finished on her angel, and finally the finished angel with the head. She plans to make more for next year. Sherry has had a bad year with a failing hard drive that lost her most recent book, but she's looking forward to teaching at Shuttlebirds this year and has posted her first day of TIAS. Stephanie Grace has been doing some freestyle tatting to try out new threads. The first doodle is done with LizBeth color 625. Lizbeth color 665 was doodled into a heart shape and the last one is Flopsy the butterfly in LizBeth 20, Color 135, a pattern by Jane Eborall, which may need some blocking to coax it into shape. Tattabugg has also started the TIAS challenge and her is day 1. Wanda has added the pattern for her 2010 snowflake to her sidebar.

Adding small gifts to Christmas Cards is a fun way to show your friends and family you're thinking of them. Crochet some quick and easy Snowflakes to gift this year using my tutorial. If you're a long-time reader of my blog, you know I like to add a small handmade gift to the Christmas Cards I send. In the past I've added Fabric Star Hangers and Matchbox Needle Keeps but this year I decided to crochet a Snowflake. This pattern makes the sweetest snowflakes, and you can use it as a tree ornament, an embellishment on Christmas projects or winter woolies, or string a few together and make a garland. They're super simple, and you only need to know how to make a magic circle and basic crochet stitches to crochet your own. If you need some help with stitches, you can follow these tutorials: Magic Circle CH: Chain Stitch SC: Single Crochet DC: Double Crochet SS: Slip Stitch I used Lionbrand's Feels Like Butter Yarn and a 3.75mm hook but use whatever you have in your yarn stash. This yarn/hook combination gave me a stable finish, but at the end of the post I'll share some ideas for stiffening your crochet for extra stability. The finished size of your Snowflake will depend on yarn ply and hook size - mine finished at about 4". Each Snowflake takes around 20 minutes to crochet and in the tutorial, I've added some tips I think might help you achieve the best result. If you're new to crocheting I think you will enjoy this one - it's a fun way to practice basic stitches and crochet more than a granny square. Ok, grab your yarn and hook and let's crochet! Row 1: Make a magic circle and into the circle work, CH6 (counts as your first DC + 3CH), *DC, 3CH*, work *to* four more times. Slip stitch into the 3rd chain from the beginning. Pull the magic circle tight. (6 x DC and 6 x 3 CH spaces) Tips: make sure your crocheting over both strands of the magic circle, and that your SS is in the 3rd chain to create the first DC + 3CH space. Row 2: Slip stich into the first 3CH space of Row 1, CH3 (counts as your first DC), 4DC, CH3, *5DC, CH3*, repeat from * to * into each 3CH space around. Slip stitch to the top of the first CH3. (30 x DC and 6 x 3 CH spaces) Tips: make sure you SS into that first 3CH space - it ensures your first DC is in the correct position. Row 3: *Slip stitch to the middle DC of Row 2 (this should be the third DC), CH3, slip stitch into same space. Slip stitch to the CH3 space of Row 2. Work CH3, slip stitch, CH5, slip stitch, CH7, slip stitch, CH5, slip stitch, CH3, slip stitch all in the same CH3 space*. Repeat from * to * around. Tie off and weave in ends. Dampen and block your finished Snowflake. Tips: you are making loops to form the snowflake - essentially making a length of chain and slip stitching it in place. It helps if you bunch them together as you work to help them fit them into the CH3 space. When travelling over the DC's with a SS, don't forget that first DC - adding a SS here helps hold everything in place. And that's it! One sweet little Snowflake! Well done! You can now add a hanger to your Snowflake, applique it to Christmas projects or string a few together to make a garland. There are several ways to stiffen your crochet. My mum used a sugar and water combination, but you can also use starch or PVA glue and water. There's a great tutorial that explains each of the three options HERE. You could also sew on some crystal beads or if you're using one of the stiffening methods you could add some glitter to the mix to make your snowflakes sparkle! I'm going to add some hangers and include them to this year's Christmas Cards. They fit perfectly and they're not too bulky for postage. They'll be a fun surprise for family and friends, and a sweet ornament they can add to their tree every year. They're super addictive, so I'm thinking I'll make the grandchildren a garland each for their bedrooms while my supplies are at hand. I hope you enjoy crocheting Snowflake's for everyone. PIN FOR LATER: Happy Christmas Crocheting :)
