It's a lovely narrow edging, it would be perfect for a hanky!
When it happened to me to tat a line of half closed rings, I soon discovered that adding a second half stitch at the end helps in blocking the ring in position, in this way the bare thread doesn't slide and the half ring doesn't close.
In the case of treble tatting stitches, making a second half of a double stitch helps the core thread to be moved to the right position, to start the next half ring. Also, the half ring doesn't close if you, accidentally, pull the thread.

Thanks to Georgia Seitz and Muskaan, who gave me a chance to brush up on my pattern for a cabochon (treble tatting in hearts ). In fact, it was shared in the Online Tatting Class on Febrary 18th.I bought 4 rivoli and started trying the pattern with 2 of them, but I forgot to protect the back, following a great hint by Yarnplayer (Marilee Rockley), that you may find here:

I'll do it, with the other two.
I haven't decided yet, if I'll add the second round.

I updated the header bar here, to add the "TREBLE TATTING STITCH - SUMMARY" page.I hope it will be useful, it is only one page which can be attached with any teaching pattern.
The pdf version is available, too:

ReplyDeleteThank you! 👍💕
DeleteVery beautiful necklaces!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! 🌹🌹🌹
DeleteI always use a shs (or fhs in backside rings) but didn’t realise it performed this function as well!
ReplyDeleteSparkling pendants 😄
Superb summary doc !
💐👋 thank you, dear Muskaan!
DeleteI usually don't add a half stitch in rings, only in half closed rings.
You made this very tempting to try and improving on it really makes it better🌹
ReplyDelete👍👋🤗 thank you!
DeleteI really like that as an edging, I’ll have to try it out. Love the rivoli, I think they’re perfect without a second round.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jane! I think you're right! 🌹🌹🌹👍
DeleteVery handy! Sometimes I use a half stitch at the end. Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteRivoli is amazing.
Thank you very much, Lenka! 🌹🌹🌹👋
DeleteThank you for sharing! This is an edging I want to try. I love the way your rivolis look. I wouldn't change a thing!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Diane, your opinion about any ice drop is valuable! 👍🤗💕💕💕💕
DeleteThank you for sharing the edging,
ReplyDeleteI followed the link to your video, now I can see what you are saying and understand how to do the treble tatting, I will be giving it a go thanks for doing the video it all makes sense now.
Great! Thank you Margaret! 💕
DeleteThats lovely with the tds half rings. I put beads on the bare thread space of the halff ring. My issue is getting the rings half closed to the same amount. The beads make the space consistent.
ReplyDeleteThank you Victats! That's a good point, beads are lovely. Anyway, you can try with a gauge... 🌹🌹🌹
