I looked last night and saw she'd posted this, I feel a bit swizzed, it looks like a variation on Herringbone. Thanks for the links, Ruth

Very nice Zed! Yours always look so neat. I guess it helps with the Aida cloth. I like the double one.

I like the double one too, maybe because if the contrasting colours.

Thanks, Ann and Ruth Yep, the aida certainly helps a lot for working them out and staying neat.

Looking good! Isn't it amazing how many stitches can be achieved with just a slight variation on a theme?

I was just thinking the same thing Judith. Many of the stitches are similar but there are so many variations.

Thanks, Kaz I'm hoping that after this I'll know enough to do my own variations or interpretations, not just based on spacing. Maybe there are no new stitches, though

Very good, I really like the little pink dots in the purple chevrons. I can see how Zeds cloth would be easier to make them all the same sized and straight. This stitch isn't what I think of as chevrons. To me they are like V's stacked one inside the other. I think it comes from weaving. Ann

Looks good, Karen. I don't think it looks that wonky.
