Motif #10


 
Maple Leaf

I used the same pattern as I did for Motif #9, but am now doing it with HDT size 20 and the Green one is called Forest that I purchased from Yarnplayer.com. On these two I did the stem different. On the green one I did the stem using the second half of the DS, but on the Sugar Plum one I did the first half. It seem to lay better using the first half and I don't know why it should actually make any difference. I am now trying to finish another piece that I started earlier, but never finished and it's not a leaf!

These are both beautiful! I don't know why the 1st half vs. 2nd half should have made a difference either.
