Friday Homework for Lesson 125: Carina's Knot Stitch

At first sight this knot stitch is not so different in looks from French Knot and Colonial Knot, but as I mentioned in last Sunday's lesson, Carina's Knot leaves a beautiful dimple in the middle.

Actually this will be very useful for making eyes on stumpwork portraits.
Make the coloured iris with a Carina's Knot,

and in the dimple place a French Knot with black thread.

Then add a tiny Straight Stitch for that glint in the eye.


But I am digressing, here is my homework:
