Why did I take so long to finish this? Well, the usual... had to retro-tat quite a bit because I keep miscounting, and the thread's rather tiny (#70!). That is one reason I feel the project is quite an accomplishment. By my standard temperament, I could have already thrown out the edging and ditched the idea a long time back, but it being my first tatted edging, I kept my cool and continued till the end.
Went looking for some hankies to tat more edgings (didn't I tell you this is addictive?!) last week and found two. Will probably start peeking in books for more patterns now that the first hanky is done. Meanwhile, I tried another pattern for fun and to sample its size...

Anyhow, hope you've had a good weekend.
