Poppy Monk Needlepoint's blog has chosen to highlight one of my favorite stitches for texture and backgrounds this month--wicker stitch. You may know it as woven stitch. It's a very pretty stitch and can be worked in all types of threads, from twisted perles to flat strands of silk. It is especially beautiful in silk flosses if it is laid carefully but it makes a quick and easy background in perle cotton or crewel wool as well.
