The stitched sample uses ThreadWorx Overdyed Floss (gray lines) and Kreinik Metallics Fine Braid (#8) (yellow lines) on 13-mesh.
This stitch would make great water with Petite Silk Lame (gray lines) and a Kreinik Metallics Fine Braid (#8) (yellow lines). It would make a cute ground cover with Treenway Tranquility (silk perle) (gray lines) and Soie D’Alger (yellow lines).

A Note about Diagrams
I use color in diagrams to make them as clear as possible. The primary function of different colored lines is to illustrate a stitch sequence. For example, layering of colors demonstrates you add them in that order. They can also provide ideas on how to integrate additional threads (one line for each color). Or, you can use the same thread for all color lines. That's where I encourage you to use your imagination for the space you are stitching!
