50 Trefoils

The table runner is getting bulky and awkward to work with, even though I'm only 10% of the way done. It's going to be much larger than this:


Here it is on the table. I've completed 50 trefoils, and the finished runner will need around 500:

It's beautiful. The finished table runner will be gorgeous! I wonder how much of that giant cone of thread you'll need to finish it.

Beautiful! When finished, it will be a true masterpiece... and to think you designed it yourself!

I can imagine working with an increasingly larger lace can be tricky. It is looking lovely so far!

It's going to be a master piece of tatting, certainly an heirloom for the furture,
Would it work to do it in sections and then join with a strip as it will be heavy towards the end.

Thanks everyone! Margaret, it can definitely be made in long strips of separate bookmarks and joined together. Though I’m curious to see just how cumbersome it will be to make in one pass. I’ve never tatted anything this large before so it will be a good learning experience.
