This design is the second in a
series called Parade of Pattern which features projects that
explore common stitches in an uncommon way. In this geometric
arrangement, a single stitch, the Milanese stitch, is used to
create a complete nine-patch design. By rotating the stitch
and combining units into interesting cluster motifs, lacy patterns
are formed that resemble quilt patterns based on triangles and
squares. Instead of the lacy one-color effect produced in Milanese
Mutations (Pattern ASK #14), the model for this pattern is worked
in soft southwestern colors and resembles an Indian design.
However, another combination of colors and value contrasts would
create a totally different interpretation. Finished Design Size:
9.5 " square. |
