This is another experiment generated out or playing with herringbone stitch as I created it by working the top section of herringbone around in a square and repeating the stitch over the top but moving inwards. I thought of doing it when looking at band 140. If you take a look I am sure you can see the connection. I even used the same thread to work it.
