Rhapsody necklace, tatting, frivolite

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Shuttle Tatting »
Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Casual, Classic, Funky, Traditional, Victorian / Steampunk, Retro / Vintage, Romantic

Materials

Lizbeth thread, 6mm round bead, size 8 seed beads, gold-plated chain

What was your inspiration?

I saw these colors in a plaid shirt.

What are you most proud of?

Somehow the pinks in the variegated thread put themselves on the outside of the design, the greens in the middle. This was just a happy accident, totally unplanned :-)

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is a project from the Shuttle Tatting course on Craftsy.

This is beautiful! And I love the thread color! Do you only use the threads you have hand dyed?

Thanks, but this project was done in a commercially dyed thread - Lizbeth #124 Spring Garden.

Where do I find the Lizbeth thread? Do I need a needle? What type?

Sources for Lizbeth thread and other tatting supplies are listed under "Materials" for the Craftsy tatting course. The Resources page has a list of online shops, links to other tatting sites, etc. The Patterns pages have all the patterns in the course. This pattern is the "Rhapsody" necklace from lesson 8. I designed it for shuttle tatting, but I think it should work okay for needle tatting as well.

I'm planning on putting it in my display at "Jewelry at the Domes" next weekend, but if it doesn't sell there, I may list it in my Etsy shop. But, you could make one like it - it's a class project! I used Lizbeth size 10 in color #124 Spring Garden.

I have to make this for my SIL....I gave her a pair of the earrings and now she wants a necklace to match and this would fit the bill!

This pattern is the "Rhapsody" necklace from lesson 8. All the patterns for the Shuttle Tatting course are found under the "Materials" tab when in the classroom view. They are a PDF download. Then, you can print them off for easy reference.
