Exotic Dot Picots

Hi friends
The Dot Picots and the Dot Picot Strings are so fascinating that I have been trying to include them in different patterns.
Here is a star flower and a split ring braid.

All chains in the outer round have a mock ring in center.
The mock ring is a string of four Dot picots close to each other.

Each trefoil petal is encircled with dot picot string. A mock ring of dot picot string is tatted at center of each petal.

Tiny Bows and a Wheel


Tiny Dots Bows
The angles were discovered while experimenting with different coloured Dot Picots. SLT to switch shuttles for changing thread colour was the necessary step. While threads at the beginning were still there, it looked like a bow after making another triangle on the other side.
                                      
The tiny Bows pattern going to be discussed in Online Tatting Class OTC 2017
look for detailed  PDF Pattern here. Video Link on How to make Dot Picots 
Tatting Bow Step by Step……….
And my discovery didn’t end with two triangles on opposite side,     
I added one more triangle to the two,became a trefoil.
                                                          
   Fourth triangle added looked like a beautiful
tiny flower with red dots.
                                                         
The Wheel pattern explained in PDF also out of experiments.
Its fusion of normal picots on rings and Dot Picots on chains inner side.
      
   Another color variation

Muskaan has developed perfect diagram to make this pattern easier.

look for detailed  PDF Pattern with diagram here.

I see many possibilities for number of patterns using technic of Dot Picots.
What do you think? 
Ready to experiment?

All suggestions, variations, comments are welcome.

Happy Tatting ...............
