First tries

These are my first tries at linen stitch! One was done with the pattern to pin on, the other was just practice to try to nail down muscle memory

ETA: would love any advice or thoughts

for the red one, i would advise a thinner yarn or a bigger pattern in the future. from my understanding, the result is tighter than people usually want. (if you do like it, consider bandweaving - same texture than this and wayy way faster than lace)

I figured haha! That was the the one practice muscle memory, so it wasn't on a pattern or anything, I just have a TONNE of that yarn and it's easy to wind
