Buffalo River meanders through several different landscapes before they reach their destination. Over rocks and around bends as it ebbs and flows. The drop stitches in this pattern represent the ripples that are made by water moving over the rocks. The side cables represent the grass and reeds that grown along the banks.

Buffalo River blocks easily into a trapezoid shape that wraps nicely around the neck. Worked side to side.
