A Lovett's Loop

Anyone know this stitch?

I'm, well bored is quite right, but close enough with my current projects
and wanted to pick up a quickie and found a kit from Fern Ridge called One
Bag Full - a wooly sheep purse.

Ok - What the heck is a Lovett's Loop. I've done loop/turkey work before,
but this is strange

Any one know a video etc - I sure couldn't find anything..

Probably a form of turkey work, but just in case why not send a note to Fern
Ridge and ask them. They designed, they should know what it is.

That's my next line of attack - I had been thinking of this as my
"orthodontist" project as over the next few months, I'm going to be at their
office quite a bit. DDE has her two appointment today.

You have my curiousity aroused. There is something called a garter
stich or a mattress stitch used in making Mrs. Lovett's Mitts (part of
the costume from Sweeny Todd). Could there be a connection? The mitts
are sort of fishnet lace. I checked Rocksea&Sarah, but found no anwer
there. www.rocksea.org

What it looks like to me is a variation of turkerywork

http://www.needlepoint.org/StitchOfT...h/2006/aug.php
Or
http://www.prettyimpressivestuff.com...key_frames.htm

Loops are "down" and the 4th spot is down a row. And no clear indication of
where 5 should be...

Just because, as we all search for this... I actually posed the question on
the Natl Embroidery Teachers Asso. Closed list. We'll see if someone comes
back, as there are phenomenal teachers and designers in the group -
including those that have written the stitch books which the rest of us are
perpetually using for reference.

My guess, someone's personal variation of Turkey Work - and either there was
a specific kind of size/count for the spacing that worked in the model - or
Cheryl can be brave and make her own coloring book lines for placement.
But, a reference is a good thing.

Just a FWIW: Llanite is SWMBO. I wrote that from her cptr, and it
defaulted to her user name.

To differentiate from your 35 other daughters?

Ach - meanie. My DGM (a.k.a. Nana Lily) frequently referred to me as her
favorite granddaughter - given I was the only one. Drove DB crazy.
