Hey there! August is almost over and autumn or spring are right around the corner. How has your week been? Did you get much stitching done? Did you start a new project?

It's a split stitch - it's just back stitching, but you just stick the needle through the middle of your previous stitch. The original pattern used chain stitch but it's a lot more work, so I went the lazier route that still gives a similar kind of sweater-y effect.
