We have arrived at Day 3 of the Tat-a-long!
Just a reminder that there will be a bonus pattern posted tomorrow.
If you are a relatively new tatter I encourage you to be brave and try tatting around the bangle. I have provided you with a couple links to help.
You can download the file here or find it at the Fringe Elements Tatting Facebook page and the Beginner's Tatting Facebook Group.
Day 3
For today you need 2 yards of white thread wound CTM on a
shuttle.

Join back to the beginning
If you have a bangle:
Fill a shuttle with thread and cut from ball. You will catch
the picots at the same time that you are tatting around the bangle, see the Tatsaway
link provided for help on catching the picots.
If you are not comfortable with making the rings then just tat around the
bangle
(remember that W= wrap)

I find it easiest to start
with a ring.
*R 4 lp 4
Make the first wrap include a picot
W 6
R 4 + (lp) 4
W 6*
Repeat from * to * around bangle picking up the picots from
the center motif as you go. Add extra
stitches as needed.
Please note that the bangle is not in the diagram
