Scroll: Southhampton Variation

This is a variation on the Southhampton Squares tutorial that I posted previously.

In this version, the center of the frame is filled with a twisted loop and the bottom section of the border is left blank. You could still add the zoomorphic letter within this design or go for something else depending upon space conservation.

Southhampton Zoomorph Variations


This is a play on the variation of the Zoomorph that I created for the Southhampton Square tutorial. Once I had the original design for the letter form (the dog's head and feet) I could leave it as-is but I wanted to experiment with different forms of knotwork to weave in and around the shape.
