TAST #70 Crested Chain Stitch

TAST #70 is called the Crested Chain Stitch. Fun and easy.
Here is my sampler

As I didn't make a 'project' piece with last week's #69 stitch, Buttonholed Double Chain, I thought I'd make a (Sumptuous Surface Embroidery) combination piece of #69 and  #70.
My scarp bag and odd button box are now a few pieces lighter.

For more TASTy work, go to Pintangle.

You say "fun and easy", I see "complicated and incredible", these stitches look like needle lace.

That's the beauty of this stitch, it's easy but looks complicated!
