This design was a journey where, quite organically, a small pattern grew into my largest pattern to date. Whilst working on the pattern I was reminded of Lao Tzu’s words: “A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving”. This seemed to be very true for this design process, and it is the reason it made its way onto the pattern. The monochrome design features only full crosses and is suitable to be stitched on any counted fabric.
