Kutchwork Kurta Design - Part IV

The Interlacing - Method I

Okay, now here are the steps to Method I. A word of caution.  You'll have to put up with my bad photography while looking at the first few pictures.

If this is the first time you are attempting Kutchwork, I'd suggest you go through the tutorials in my side bar before you attempt this.

Note: I have used numbers and letters to name lines for ease of explanation.  They may or may not be consistent with the letters and numbers assigned for working the skeleton.



If you want to enlarge the images, just click on them. When I say over or under, it means the needle has to pass over or under the skeletal lines.










From here on, I am sure most of you will be able to proceed without any difficulty.  All the same, I'll post the steps all the way through.













I've finally figured out how to take better pictures. From here onwards, the pictures are very clear.















We have reached the end. Now, we'll have to weave our way back to the starting point. 












I'll post the steps to Method II sometime next week.
