MARGARET DID KATIA'S EMAIL ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ABOUT THE RR? 04I had one question about the round robin pattern GO AHEAD i think so robert yes you are robert;0 i c u robert it's unanimous you are still her 06. 04it said 6-2-2/6 but when you do the mock picot, in that order, it is then third and not in the middle like in the picture SHE DID NT RECIEVED THE MAIL... IT SEAM IVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE SENDING AND RECEIVING MAILS 04I didn't get the reply from Kaita MARGARET IS REFERRING TO http://www.georgiaseitz.com/roundrobin/newbiesroundrobin.html FOR THOSE OF YOU FOLLOWING THERE IS A TYPO IN THE PATTERN MARGARET . DIDN'T YOU MENTION IT ROBERT AND JOY? oops sorry :( Thank you for seeing me. ur welcome:-* I WISH I COULD REMEMBER, MAY HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE LOG 06I think robert did. 04I think that was a different pattern. This was lesson 3 EXACTLY CORRECT MARGARET The typo I remember was the split ring flower 06c I mentioned one on bella on-line's flower BEGINNER'S ROUND ROBIN, RIGHT 04it was the split ring followed by a mock picot and then rings off chains OH THAT'S RIGHT ROBERT, NOT THIS ONE I do not remember ont his pattern. BUT LET'S READ AGAIN 04I am opening that screen I THINK MARGARET HAS A GOOD POINT, BUT I'M A LITTLE BIT TIRED TONIGHT THIS PATTERN HAS BEEN MADE BY A LOT OF TATTERS OPTION B SAYS 06Some of us may have figured out the way to change it and didn't think anything more about it "Split Ring SH1 6 - 2 - 2 / 6 close ring. Make mock picot to climb out into the next round." 04the picture shows the optional mock picot in the middle . SO IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE MARGARET IS CORRECT - THE DIAGRAM IS WHAT WE WANT TO DO, AND CHANGE THE TERM TO SAY 06That's what I'm thinking, Cynthia. Split Ring SH1 6 - 2 / 2 - 6 close ring. Make mock picot to climb out into the next round. DO YOU AGREE GEORGIA I DO AGREE MIMI Option B split ring What I did was 6-2-/6-2 or something like that I think that I did that without thinking tha AND ROBERT, DID YOU WRITE TO BELLA ONLINE TO TELL HTEM ABOUT THE TYPO IN THEIR PATTERN? yes I just reviewd the pattern not yet, but it is on the list. EXACTLY ROBERT AND CYNTHIA, WE READ THE DIAGRAM NOT THE PATTERN :) it has been posted so many years and I never noticed that error, sorry but as soon I as I get back fromt he Winter Lace Conference next week I will HEY ME TOO GEORGIA, AND HOW MANY CLASSES HAVE I BROUGHT THIS PATTERN TO AND NEVER A PEEP? HEE HEE correct that page. 04I am not good at pictures, but that pattern has helped my picture-reading . THAT WILL BE GREAT GEORGIA, ANY TIME. ALL OF US NEED TO HELPTHE OTHERS WITH PROOFREADING 06c 06. 06the more eyes the better :-X so if the teachers will excuse me, I leave on the trip in 8 hours 04glad I could be of assistance. I am feeling blue tonight AFTER THE WORK LAUREN SNYDER AND I DID ON AN OLD MONA HAHN PATTERN, I CAN TELL YOU JUST HOW MANY TYPOS CAN BE FOUND IN ONE PATTERN :) so I say good night to you all 06bye and safe tryp Have a safe trip and congratulation on your hard work THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING GEORGIA NIte Georgia nn THANKS FOR COMING GEOGIA AND HAVE A NICE TRIP 04enjoy the lace conference, Georgia 06Thanks for stopping in, Georgia. Safe trip! I'll be looking forward to see you all in the regular class soon thanks a lot thanks again georgia Not this MOnday though i'll be there good night and happy tatting all :) NIGHTERS * AKTATTER has left #tatchat 13Have a safe trip Georgia. OK ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM OLD LESSONS? 06None from me. 06not here OK here 04yes. in the round robin again what do the rings off chains look like? . 13not at the moment none from me no 04of course, I didn't finish the lock join because I noticed the error ?LOOK LIKE THE RING OFF CHAIN SHOULD LOOK LIKE THE RING ARE OVER THE CHAIN DO YOU MEAN AFTER YOUR LOCK JOIN? YOU MAKE A PORTION OF THE CHAIN, DROP SHUTTLE 1, PICK UP SHUTTLE 2 AND MAKE A RING WITH ITS BASE AT THE TOP FO THE LAST DS OF THE CHAIN, . 04mine are flat. but it could be because I haven't done the lock join yet no questions here 06. AFTER CLOSING THE RING, PUT SHUTTLE 2 BACK OVER YOUR LEFT HAND IN CHAIN-MAKING POSITION AND PICK UP SHUTTLE 1 FOR ANOTHER HCAIN SECTION 04I got that part 06c yep I'M AFRAID I'M REALLY TIRED AND NOT PICKING UP... WHAT WENT FLAT? . IN THE MAIL YOU SENT ME MARGARET THE RING OFF CHIN WERE AT THE RIGHT PLACE OUPS CHAIN I want to see a ring off your chin GOATEE RING? :) that i wanna see hee hee 06:) 06lol hehe SEE MIMI YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO IS TIRED ;) tired here too YOU HAVE MORE HOURS ON ME, I'M JUST SILLY WITH IT TOO DID WE LOSE MARGARET? HMMM IM NOT SURE ..... MARGARET? 04no I was making the lock join oh phew lol 04maybe I am not understanding the term rings off chains THESE ARE THE LITTLE RINGS THAT GO AROUND THE OUTSIDE OF THE MOTIF . 04am I correct to think the rings are to be at right angles to the chains? 06. THAT'S CORRECT, THOSE ARE THE ONES 04but mine are flat YOU USE THE 2ND SHUTTLE TO MAKE THEM (DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE THAT FLIPS THE DS'S OF THE CHAIN) We can't snooze in the class. Mimi and Katia will call on us. KATIA, DO YOU KNOW WHAT SHE MEANS FROM THE SCAN? 06yes they are parallel to the chain not crosswise 04I did use two different shuttles -- one for the chains and one for the rings IN THE SAME PLANE? YES THIS IS A 2-DIMENSIONAL PIECE THEY ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE SHOULD LAY FLAT WITHOUT IRONING :) 13I was so pleased with myself when I got the hang of doing rings off chains. GOOD JOB SHARON YOU SHOULD BE 06. 04I misunderstood. I thought it was 3-dimensional and they stood up like soldiers at attention on the parade ground 06Margaret will get it I'm sure I think it may be a "confusing" bords . 06oops words THANKS CYNTHIA FOR YOUR HELP TO GET ME TO SEE IT MARGARET'S WAY MARGARET HAVE YOU TOOK A LOOK AT THE HOMEWORK PAGE? Ok, I just e-mailed the correction to bella on-line. Margaret - Flat is good I MUST BE TALKING TEXAN AGAIN NOT CANADIAN :) 13Does anyone have any hints for wrapping the fingers to do a chain> THANKS ROBERT, BEVERLY WILL REALLY APPRECIATE IT OH SHARON, WHAT A TOUGHIE DO YOU WRAP KATIA 06I double wrap my pinkie 13I seem to loosen up before I get my chain finished. I've got a new way that works better for me. BEING SELF TAUGHT, I DEVELOPED A WEIRD WAY
