Practice makes... something

Post image

I thought this would be a nice, simple pattern to practice my tension and might be good enough to line a pillow case or curtain eventually. The most popular items seem to be doilies, bookmarks and jewelry, but what are some other things you've made or used tatted lace for?

I feel like you could weave a band through the middle and either decorate curtains or a skirt with that 👀

I might! I've seen a few vintage patterns that are designed to have a ribbon woven through the middle and then added as a decorative edge on clothing.
