MOTIF 6
The basis of Motif 6 is a single element which resembles the letter "Z" or its approximate mirror image, the letter "S". The degree to which elements resemble either of these letters varies widely: at one end of the spectrum are classic Z letters, while at the other end are items that look like squashed worms, and in between are variously shaped objects, some of which (in my mind at least) resemble ducks swimming down a river. One widely accepted interpretation of this motif is "basket stitch".
