My blog has been sadly neglected... I decided I'd just jump in blogging again with what I finished tonight. I saw a picture of this bookmark and the apparently original pattern that someone had drawn on a sheet of paper on Pinterest--unfortunately there was no author's name. There were very few details on the pattern--just simply rings drawn on paper.... I had to figure out which were regular rings and which were split rings, it was about half and half... I also decided on the stitch count.
If anyone knows the original designer--please let me know so I can give them credit.
I'm not real happy with the way it looks. I did not try to "frontside/backside" tat--as a matter of fact I never even kept track of which shuttle was "shuttle #1"! Many of the rings ended up misshapen, especially if they ended up being a ring that was the result of being a ring that had thread ends added into it. However, it will be a neat little bookmark to stick in my little purse Bible which was what I wanted it for to begin with.
The thread used was Lizbeth, size 20, colors #612 Golden Yellow Lt., #619 Baby Pink, and #649 Baby Blue.
Lovely pastel colours and great pattern, I don't know the pattern and have not seen it before, no doubt everyone will be looking for it. I would ha be been nice for someone to say they designed it.

I think we are all our own worst critics. But, your bookmark looks nice. I don't think I have seen the pattern before.
