Yours is the 2nd white swatch I have seen; the other had a cable. Mine is red, white & blue instarsia. Hope to be next to your beautifully textured swatch!

And I'm impressed - you did it in SEED STITCH. In COTTON. No wonder you were a-froggin'! Not many people can take doing seed stitch, much less in cotton, because work is slow. You rock :-) (P.S. The types of cotton yarn to work with, in my opinion, are 100% mercerised cotton in dk weight and 100% cotton or cotton blends up to bulky weight that are very tightly spun - there's less splitting and they're lighter.)
