I worked a few options for the border offering easier to remember repetition for me. I've studied the chart, and just can't seem to follow without constant referral which frustrates me. Following the basic outline count, I came up with three options I can handle. They are nine stitches deep (#3 is eight) rather than ten, preventing border from touching interior stitches.
I will test them all, but the center is the closest to original with a two stitch simple pattern, easy to remember. I think one row less will make a big difference in the crowded look. It may be modified a little more if not pleasing when test stitched.
This is the start of the giant pear, not my type of stitching!! Too many colors and ziggys to follow. I realize that A Miscellany may be too much for me. Never did care for such detailed sections and being distracted with memories and regrets regarding Carole makes for many errors. Having a difficult time.
Dryer croaked, roofer coming for estimates today, and it is quite cool out there.
Hope your day is without breakdowns or repairs!!
