One of these simple changes is working its way into one of my designs that is headed for publication. While I cannot give details on the actual project (yet!), I can share the stitch. Before doing so, I want to note that I do not recall seeing this stitch in a publication -- yet. Or perhaps I have, but just can't remember where. I am not claiming to have invented it, but I am claiming naming it the "Kiss" stitch until I can find out more information about it.
Why call it the "Kiss" stitch? Because it reminds me of two great loves coming together to create one special experience -- a simple kiss. Give it a try and let me know what you think:
Readers, if you've seen this stitch elsewhere, please let me know! Thanks! :)

VERY pretty!! I love it!
But haven't seen it before....
I don't recall seeing that one, it's beautiful.
Dee--
Yes, I have seen this stitch before. I believe I used it on a pair of gloves or mittens. I'll try to hunt down that pattern for you. It is not mine, but free online. I believe that designer referred to it as a bobble--not your typical bobble!
All that aside... I do love your work!
Dee-
Have been completely unsuccessful finding that pattern! I can tell you that the stitch used was a "Front Back Bobble." This FBBl is actually constructed something like a DC DEC--only in one stitch! [YO, insert into BL of stitch, YO and pull thru 2 loops, YO, insert into FL of stitch, YO and pull thru 2 loops, YO and pull thru all 3 loops].
Have a great day!
Love the pattern. I futzed around with it and made a dishcloth and started a scarf. I am sure you will come up with something truly elegant using the pattern instead of my humble efforts. Darlene
Hi Dee, I love your experiments!
This one reminds me of a similar stitch pattern, maybe called "thermal stitch" at JP Fun? I think she did the same kiss stitch every row instead of alternating with a row of sc like you're doing.
Found it! It is less similar to yours than I thought. There are at least 3 differences: http://www.jpfun.com/patterns/free/dishcloths/f112008_thermalstitchdishcloth.shtml
