Pekinese stitch

I first tried this stitch on an evenweave fabric with perle 5. I made a Pekinese stitch in yellow and red (bottom) and a double Pekinese stitch in red (top). They both have green backstitches.My second experiment was a Pekinese stitch on a circle. I used a piece of unbleached cotton and 3 threads of stranded DMC in 2 shades of green.
This was a very easy stitch, the next one looks very tricky!

3 opmerkingen:

  1. Zeker geen ingewikkelde steek, maar wel eentje met aardige mogelijkheden zo lijkt me. Ik ben zelf een beetje gestopt met TAST, misschien ga ik deze echter wel binnenkort eens uitproberen.
