Presenting a new gift pattern of the Adventurous Seahorse.
The idea behind this gift pattern is to encourage experimentation using a simple pattern which can be altered again and again.
It will help if you have experience with cloth stitch, half stitch and adding extra twists and adding pairs to start with, then add picots, braid edges, mix the cloth with the half stitch, add beads, add sequins, add different threads, go mad with colours!
Start with cloth stitch along the nose, this will give you an idea of how many passives you will need to add for your chosen threads. Aim for a snug cloth stitch, if it is too spaced out, add more passives. The only thing that remains constant is the worker pair, try and keep this to the same thickness of thread, even if it changes bobbins if you work in half stitch.
This pattern can be used for teaching and sharing as the original A4 only, with due respect to my copyright.
