Hi all
Hope all are doing well and good. Yesterday I have shared the tutorial for doing the wheatear stitch. Today I have posted a simple design to practice the same.
Pattern for the design
-----------------------------
I have used two shades of green for the stalks. Start with a straight stitch for the tip. Then proceed with the wheatear stitches till the 'v' shapes are drawn and the remaining part of the stalks are stitched with back stitch. I have used 4 strands of threads to do the wheatear and back stitch.
After completing the wheatear stitch I have added french knots in red and yellow at the tip of the wheat ears. I have used 6 strands of thread with 1 wrap. This is just a simple design to practice wheatear stitch.
Hope all of you like it. Tomorrow I will be back with a finished crochet square. Till then, have a nice day.

Very pretty colours and stitches.
ReplyDeleteThe Wheatear stitch is a nice stitch in itself. You have proven that it is great as a foundation stitch and other stitches can be added to build fantastic things.
