TAST Week 42 – Detail 412 November 2nd, 2007

Cretan Stitch with added twisted satin stitch

I am going to put a bow on the bottom part of this seam and as I want the bow to be the focal point I wanted a neutral seam behind it, I have chosen a thread that is a close match to one of the fabrics and started doing a Cretan Stitch after taking the first couple of stitches I realized that I could make a Twisted Satin Chain (TAST week 42) on each stitch, with the thread that I was useing the extra bulk of the Twisted Satin doesn’t make much of a visual difference to the Cretan Stitch but it has given it a nice texture.
