Hand dyed thread "Celery"

This new dye batch is posed with the makings of a good salad -
-and the tatting shuttle is handmade by Lady Shuttle Maker. The tatted clover has a tail started in an s-chain. This technique is explained very well by Sabina Carden-Madden.
So, it will be salad for supper tonight - followed by tatting - sounds very healthy to me!

  2. What a perfect match, is it the thread that is dyed to match the celery or the celery to match the thread. Beautiful colourway, bright, vibrant, alive, oh the possibilities.

  4. Thank you very much! The vegetable props for the photo made a delicious salad. The next time I do a dye batch of "Rhubarb Pie"... well, you know where I'm going with this.
