These half chained cross stitches are done in yellow perle 8. I made a normal half cross stitch and started the chain stitch at the centre of the stitch. From a distance it looks like a Palestrina stitch. I like this variation too!
This variation is done with perle 12 and 2 mm beads. I put the bead on the thread before I started the stitch, so it's on the first half cross stitch. I made the chain stitch around the bead.
My last experiment is a variation with a twisted chain stitch in perle 5.
These are only a few of the examples I made on my sampler for week 26 of TAST. My complete sampler is on my Flickr-page.
I like all the variations of your stitches, particularly the woven one.
