I have been admiring the Windmills that several people have tatted recently. I was intrigued because I had started
knitting the Jojoland "Swirl Shawl" pattern that looked very similar to the tatted windmills. So, I picked one of Karey Solomon's HDT color "Late Summer Evening" that I purchased at Tat Days and got started. I kept adding rounds until it reached 3 1/4 inches in diameter. I didn't like the picots on the last round since I knew I was not going to attach it to others, so I eliminated them. I like the way it turned out. Now, what to do with it? I think I may frame it. What would you suggest I do with it?
Happy tatting,

Very pretty and creative.
I really like this thread and the lack of finishing picots. Very nice!

That is a wonderful windmill!!! :)
This is pretty, JB!
You could get a clear holder and use it as a coaster or a hot plate....
Amazing how the tatting looks like the knitting! Both are beautiful.
I've never tatted Windmill, although I have looked at the pattern many times. I never noticed the similarity to the shawl pattern before. Yes, I have it and the yarn to make it stashed away someplace really safe. I really think I'll never be bored once I finally retire!
This pattern in this color is so interesting! I'll have to get some.
What a wonderful, well-formed windmill! Is it coaster-size?
Love it! The colors are great and I really like the look. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful! Love the colors and look. Thanks for sharing!
