Intricate as some of these designs are, it must be remembered that none of them are drawn on the cloth. The first row of running stitches acts as the guiding line for the rest of the border. The sure eye of the needlewoman and her steady hand create these traditional border patterns in the kanthas.
Shostir Chino. Outline the motif with stitch, and then use the bending stitch (the kaitya) around the motif. Each stitch moves slightly forward. There is an optical illusion, it appears to move before our eyes. It feels like a moving wheel.
