I don't know what it is but I like it.
This is a community blog for the participants of the Fall 2013 "Tat it and See" hosted by Sherry Pence. This event has concluded. It was a wonderful success with well over 100 participants around the globe. This blog will remain open indefinitely to allow participants to continue to post progress on this pattern. I am considering making this a yearly event so keep checking back!

Playing Catch-Up
I am happy to say that I am completely caught up now (and hope to stay that way). I still have no clue what we are making, but I have to say I loved the ballgown idea that Grace shared!

Day 6 from Springdale, Arkansas

| Day 6 - Bowl of flowers? |
Someone was wondering about the picot on the last ring. Even though the diagram didn't show a picot ring, the numbers for the ring are still 1, 6, 1 and the text instructions include a picot as well, so I went ahead and put it in. I'm just not patient enough to wait. :-)

Days 1 & 2
This is Grace in Singapore.
Well, I was late with Day 1, but here I am with Day 2 already! :-) I'm using Lizbeth Caribbean, Size 20.
Guesses? Well, after Day 1 I thought it looked like a flower, or perhaps the innards of a caterpillar. But now I think it might look like the skirt of a crinoline lady.

TIAS - Day One - Natalie
You can find the pattern for day one here: http://ladyshuttlemaker.blogspot.com/2013/09/tias-day-one.html
Today's pattern bit was very straight forward. The most challenging part for me in this section was the measured mock picot. It took me a few tries to figure out how to hold my gauge and get the distance right. I don't normally tat with picot gauges - so that may take some getting used to. The only thing I'm not happy with is that the first picot twisted - I'm hoping there is a join to that picot later on that will correct that issue. I don't have any guesses yet as to what the finished pattern might be.
EDIT:
So I definitely made 1/2" picots yesterday, using my picot gauge vertically. So with Sherry's announcement this morning that the picots should be 1/4", I had a bit of fun retro tatting. Each time I practice taking out a ring it seems to get easier. I managed to undo all of yesterday's work so that I could re-tat Day One. So here it is, in all it's 1/4" picot-y goodness.
