OOPS!   Looks like I forgot to share my cro-tat bookmark I made to keep in my recipe pages.    It's the same one I made before from Roger's Easy Beginner Cro-tat Bookmark, found here:

Cro-Tat Ring Tips Snowflake

I made this Cro-tat Ring Tips Snowflake from MaryM's free patterns. This one is: 
http://www.reocities.com/mountainhome1999/ringtips.htm and I used Aunt Lydia's Fashion #3 thread, with the Prym size 2mm hook I just got. It is mostly crochet, with just the rings on the tips being tatting. It was harder for me because this is not slinky thread, but since I have some experience doing this, I was able to make it work. When I put the first ring on, I thought it was too big looking and nearly ripped it out and just did a 3 picot ring. But, I thought her picture looked good and I just needed to follow what she did, and it turned out great at that size, afterall.
