starfish

I was doing a swap with an online friend, and sent her this tatted starfish to keep the seahorses company.
I used a rick-rack stitch to make the arms, joined them near the ends, and some halfway along the length, then a picot at the centre point, and the last leg joined all the picots together in the centre.
I think it would be easy to make an octopus using the same basic idea for the legs.
Anyone want to try it?
Happy tatting.






Thanks for visiting.
Hugs from Suz

  3. Thanks for your comments Lakshmi and bsotf! Like a lot of my patterns, it came about by accident. Glad you like it. Are you going to try the octopus?
