Another band of pulled thread work. This one is "Pulled Bricking". Unlike the four sided stitch above (and upcoming), not all the sides are 'pulled'. Only the short verticals are wrapped and distorting the ground threads. The horizontal stitches are not pulled at all and lie on the surface of the ground fabric.
This makes an interesting pattern that looks almost woven.
Just an accidental shot, but it looks like the 'art-sy magazine photo' LOL.
By the way, if you are doing this project, this band starts and ends one thread in from the other bands! Yes, there was a bit of frogging, but luckily I noticed near the start of the band as pulled thread work is not that easy to pull out and the deliberate distortion of the ground can linger even when the working threads are removed.
