Tatiana's Cuff is finished.

I will take another pictures when it is dry from fabric stiffener. This project is VERY hard and tricky. I started this project last night. I couldn't get it right until this morning. I started and finished today. I had to be careful not to twist the circles inside. I had to reverse single crochet than turn the work. This project said "Do Not Turn". So I tried to crochet the reverse single crochet and it worked. The small circles in the cuff are created with short-rows worked within longer rows. I used very TINY hook-Steel Hooks. My hands were achy from it. I added the silver beads on it. It is hard to see when all of the pins are around it. You will see better when it is done dry. I put parchment paper over on my blocking board, because of fabric stiffener. I am glad that is done. I was going to giving that up but I decided to keep going on until I got it right. I used Aunt Lydia's Classic Crochet Thread Size 10 natural. This is NOT for beginner crocheter.
