This is my own original tatting design, created as a pattern in pdf format. The pattern is for a pair of tatted earrings with beads. In size 20 thread, the earrings measure approximately 1 wide and 2 long (not including the ear wires). This listing is for a pdf instructional pattern only, not the actual tatted earrings.

I would call this an beginner level tatting pattern that uses a shuttle and ball, rings, chains, picots, joins, and beads. The bead work is very simple - I think this is a good pattern to try your hand at a little beading in your tatting.

The written long-hand instructions are in English, and the pattern also contains a scan of the tatted earrings with the stitch count laid over part of the scan. There is no pictorial diagram of the pattern.

The pattern will be sent as an attachment to the e-mail address associated with your Artfire account.

The pattern file size is approximately 95 KB, and is in pdf format. It is necessary to have Adobe Reader on your computer in order to open this file, but you can get that program for free at
