Friday Homework for Lesson 306: Whipped Back Stitch

There is little to say about this stitch, just that it is easy and beautiful.

Maybe I should add that whipping the Back Stitch line is a good way to hide any unevenness in the length of the stitches.

It is hard to tell which line has Back Stitch in brown and whipping in light blue and which is the other way round.


Mottled Wool Scribble Cloth

If you whip with a hairy wool yarn you get a very fuzzy look.

If you whip with something sufficiently different in thickness to the stitched line, there are all sorts of interesting textural possibilities...!
