I asked someone their favorite color and she
said black, but I like green too. So....
She has a black and green cross.
This is Mary Konior's Small Cross from
her Tatting with Visual Patterns book.
It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Black and
Yarnplayer's HDT Celery(my favorite
green)!!! :)
I have worked on the Spring Doily, but
while riding across state Saturday and
tatting I had a small problem closing a ring.
It stopped closing so I tried to straighten out
the curling thread, and succeed 3 times, but
the 4th time the thread snapped, so I have to
take time to take out the partial ring and join
the shuttle thread back and start again.
I also worked on the Christmas Bow edging,
but got tired quickly.
I also had an order for a green pair of my
dreamcatcher earrings which have been
tatted and delivered this weekend, and I
have an order for a rainbow pair.
Happy tatting everyone!!! :)

The green and black work so well together in this pattern! Of course you know that my choice would have been blue. ;-)
Thank you Diane!!! :) I agree with you and my preference would be blue also!!! :)
I like that cross pattern a lot. Looks lovely in black and green.
Thank you Fox!!! :)
Beautiful cross
The black outlines it so well, but the green lifts it - good combination! Good luck with sorting out the Spring doily, what a shame that's required.
The green and black are beautiful together. I like that cross pattern too.
Thank you very much everyone!!! :)
Beautiful cross! The color combo does bring out the details!
When the thread curls and kinks it really is frustrating. Sometimes the trick is to put both ends of the ring together, then pull the thread, but that doesn't always work either...sigh.
Thank you very much Marilee!! :) Actually I do put the ends together because it seems to close easier for me, but this was just one of those times.
Striking !!! Love the effect & your tatting, of course :-)
Thank you very much muskaan!!! :)
I like how black borders almost like stained glass. Sometimes the thread is just very twisty no matter what you do. I've broken a thread so many time when closing a ring that unfortlunately I have become an expert in retro-tatting and adding new thread.
A great combination here. Love it!
Thank you both!!!! :)
Well Bernice, maybe we should start a CRBT club(closing ring break thread club). :)
I have a love hate relationship with this tatted cross pattern, but it does look very nice in those colours. Well done on your orders
Thank you Sally!! :)
That's a great cross, and I like the way you have incorporated the two colours.
Thank you Margaret!!! :)
