smocking

Yarn: Bouton d’Or : Cérès, Color: Naturel (worsted)
Wraps Per Inch: 14 wpi
Needles: 4.5 mm / 7 US / 7 BWG
Gauge: 34 sts. & 34 rows to 10cm (4″)
Pattern: Stockinette Stitch
Stitch Count Repeat: Multiple of 8 sts.
Book: A Treasury of Knitting Patterns, chapter 7 Fancy Texture Patterns
Page: 134

Comments: Creates a very dense fabric, though still very soft and supple. Unlike Stockinette no tendancy to curl in either direction. Would make a nice jacket or vest.
