1. I took a green thread with a diameter of 1.5 mm for the dragonfly’s body. I unwound 3 threads of 80 cm each, melted the ends over the fire so as not to fall apart, and tied them in half onto a ring with a diameter of 1 cm.
2. Next, we form a tatting knot on the left:
and in the same way on the left.
3. String a bead with a diameter of approximately 7 mm on the right. I once bought these beads in Montpensier, then I tried to buy more, but I couldn’t find them, so buttons from a sewing store were used in the second dragonfly.
and left.
4. After this, we form two tatting knots on the right and left
5. Accordingly, we tie the two middle threads together
This is what happened, this is the face it turned out to be.
6. Now I will make a wing; to do this, we will string nine flattened beads with a diameter of about 5 mm onto the outer threads on the right and left.
7. After this, I made a tatting knot similar to steps 2-5, and repeated this 2 times, then formed the second wing in the same way, but from six beads. This is the body that came out of the dragonfly:
8. Now you can start shaping the tail.I took the outermost thread on the left and made a tatting knot around the four middle threads, and then did the same on the right.
As a result, the dragonfly is on my mobile phone! The second dragonfly had a bead at the end of its tail.
