If you are doing directional (frontside/backside) tatting, you would have to start your ring with the 2nd half and then the split ring side would start with the first half. <br /><br />also, it looks like you are doing a lock join on your mock picots. I don't think you need toLadytatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13333655818263465112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668959928927348944.post-12126026263773744522011-02-19T10:26:16.679-05:002011-02-19T10:26:16.679-05:00good morning John,
yes, when doing the second side...good morning John,<br />yes, when doing the second side of the split ring, you start with the 2nd half of the ds. sound wrong, but ends up right.<br /><br />when joining to the second half of the split ring, it works best for me to, pull the RING thread up through the joining picot, pass the shuttle through the ring thread from fingers to thumb. then straighten the ring thread to pull the shuttle thread thread down through the joining picot. <br /><br />try doing this with large practice thread to get a good look at what you are doing. <br /><br />if this isn't clear, then let me know, and I will try to do a better description. ladytatslace at g mail dot comLadytatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13333655818263465112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668959928927348944.post-27153136697503625962011-02-19T10:14:00.523-05:002011-02-19T10:14:00.523-05:00Split ring down join?

In other words, reverse the order of the ds in the second half of the SR. <br /><br />I only see one twist and it looks as if you can block it straight... Your work looks very, very nice.<br />Fox : )Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12889386206601730189noreply@blogger.com
