Baby Flake

I thought I'd try something using a 6 ring daisy. The first attempt made an arm that looked like garbage so I cut it off. I drew out a couple of variations and then started to tat. Here's the first one that I name Baby Flake because it tiny and cute and about the smallest thing you could tat for a snowflake. It's just under 2 inches from point to point.

And since I'd already drawn it before I tatted it, there's a pattern to go with it.

Edited to add: The pattern calls for the last ring in the daisy to be tatted as a split ring so that you can climb out into the next row. Since I did this one in a hurry late at night I neglected to show the split ring in the legend although it is shown in the drawing. See that shaded edge of the ring? That's the split.
