I joined to the wrong spot. If you look at the picture you can see I skipped a chain and joined to the next one. Unfortunately I'd already made the next ring so it was painful to think of undoing everything...
So I thought I'll use split chain technique in reverse to get to the join, redo the join and then use split chain technique to finish the chain.
Which works except...
How do you undo the join? Couldn't figure that out so I ended up cutting the ball thread to undo the join and join to the right place. I finished the chain using split chain technique. Not quite the way I thought it would happen but I didn't need to retro tat the ring... So I was kinda SMRT
Sorry I guess I wasn't thinking and it didn't occur to me yesterday that you might want to see the wrist warmer attempts.
This one of the wrist warmers. I've done a few unmatched pairs because the tops are all slightly different. There's still some changes to be made depending on the top of the wrist warmer.
They are suprisingly comfy. If you've tried tatting with wool before you know that really fuzzy wool doesn't tend to work. Its too hard to close the rings and it tends to break. The alegria is more sturdy and less fuzzy than other types I've tried.
I've tatted myself to a standstill. I've been addicted to tatting with this Manos del Uruguay yarn called Alegria. Its a cozy superwash merino blend that I bought for a crochet project but ended up using it for tatting. Cause I use everything for tatting.
Unfortunately there is a limit to how long my thumbs will cooperate. No pictures yet but the yarn ended up being tatted wrist warmers.
