This is a beautiful swatch, and a beautiful photo. I must admit I’ve always been a bit daunted by the “wrap 4 times around needle”-type stitches. Yours is inspiring.

Thanks! The wraps weren’t much of a problem, just knit a little loose & wrap a little tight. I had to watch that I didn’t tangle the loops.

Wow, that is amazing! I just found out this stitch actually has a name. I designed a cowl for loom knitting in the summer (2012) with a series of these but crossing 3×3; which I totally dreamed up in my head. I called it a “cross drop stitch” in my Chic Retreat Cowl. There are more yarn-overs to had height. The pattern I available on my YouTube site as a loom along but if you’d like to see photos, the pattern is on vivaloom.com. Here is the link. I guess I should now tag it with Indian Cross Stitch
