Today I have moved onto the next stitch, Take a stitch Tuesday Week 3 which was Detached Chain Stitch….All stitches look different when stitched with different threads and I have always found the look of Detached Chain to be very varied when done with different threads, to illustrate this I have done a line of short and a line of long detached chain stitches worked in a variety of threads.
From left to right the threads are…red silk, maroon wool, green Silk buttonhole twist, yellow Linen, Black Cotton Broder, green Rayon, Gold Metalic, 1 strand, 2 strands, 3 strands, 4 strands, 5 strands and 6 strands of cotton floss, Cotton, Ribbon Floss, silk Ribbon, size 5 cotton pearl, size 3 cotton pearl.
