Curve Stitching Patterns
Curve stitching patterns is a geometric concept. The pattern is created by geometric circles and curves created together to form a pattern. These stitching patterns are used to form designs for art, clothing or for a hobby for the skilled hand. No schooling is needed, just a stitch needle, yarn and lots of patience can lead to a nice completed product. This type is similar to the criss cross stitch pattern.

NOTES: Those interested in curve-stitch designs may enjoy Jon Millington’s attractive book, Curve Stitching: The Art of Sewing Beautiful Mathematical Patterns (Diss, England: Tarquin Publications, 1989). This full-color paperback includes a brief quotation from Mary Boole, who invented curve stitching in 1904;

Of course, we could get another set of patterns by branching out from a square. Any regular polygon—triangle, pentagon, hexagon, etc.—could be the basis for similar designs. I did not build that generalization into my program, however, so, for the moment, I’ll leave those designs to others.

Curve stitching utilizes basic geometric forms, making curves and circles out of straight lines. Order and symmetry are the basis of its appeal. Young children of ages 4 to 5 are able to be successful stitching angles.

Introduction to Curve Stitching - Line Designs; A greater number of notches on the side of the square will result in a design which is higher in density but has the same curve. The numbering of the notches can be varied to create different number patterns or can be used to discuss the Cartesian Coordinate System.
