This is a spider web with three spokes, which is one of the spider web variations in Hardanger Filling Stitches. It looks great in a border, as shown here, or can also work really well in a large square with one in each of four quadrants. In each quadrant, the diagonal stitch could be pointing in to the centre of the large square, or pointing away from the centre. Each version would give quite a different look.
We’re part way through a series exploring the stitches that are featured in my forthcoming book, Hardanger Filling Stitches. If this is the first post you’ve seen in the series, have a look for the others.
Hardanger Filling Stitches by Yvette Stanton, will be arriving in Australia in December 2023, New Zealand shortly after that, UK in February 2024, and the US in March. You can order it from your favourite needlework store, worldwide. If they don’t know where to get it from, you can ask them to contact me, and I will direct them accordingly.
Vetty Creations have supplies packs for the Hardanger Filling Stitch sampler featured in the book.
