It's time to look back at the last five stitches:
This is a nice filling stitch. If you look closely, it does look like the stems of bamboo grass.
342 Broken Chain Stitch
Fish hooks? Dangling earrings?
It's an easy stitch and can be used as a base for other stitches like French Knots or Straight Stitch.
343 Open Fishbone Stitch
Here is the perfect stitch for portraying leaves. It looks very nice in a variegated thread.
344 Persian Star Filling Stitch
Tension is important here, but the result is very pleasing, don't you agree?
345 Barred Buttonhole Wheel Stitch
I love this variation of the traditional Wheel Stitch. If you packed more of the Buttonhole Stitch in each quarter, you would end up with a cross in the middle!
Homework:
Let Sunbonnet Sue illustrate these five stitches, somehow.
