defined pents

Post by skimhumboldt? »

I noticed that stichers like ilja have pents that are really defined (sharp corners) so i was wondering how to get the pents to look like that? i havent yet figured it out. mine always come really rounded so my pents look more like circles than pents.

Experiment with hole placement. Where you place your hole in the corners determines what turns out. Also, experiment with different templates. The key is being consistent.

4 stitches per side (but that doesn't break in too well)
3 stitches per side 1/2 mm from edges
certain color combos hold crisper edges than others as well, so keep that in mind.

and like peng said; consistancy, meaning even stitching & gather
