as much as i like some of your patterns, i have no idea why you (and many other pattern creators) insist on not using stitching chisels or an awl. it baffles me.
It's much easier to work with round punches than with pricking irons, which is good for someone just starting out. Moreover, pricking irons come in various sizes: 3mm between holes, 3.25mm, 3.85mm, 4mm, and so on, whereas holes made with a round punch can be made anywhere. I have wallet patterns for pricking irons that haven't been successful, and I also have a wallet pattern for round punches that sold well. And as you mentioned, other pattern makers also create patterns for round punches, probably for the same reason.
@@VasileandPavel it is beginner friendly, i agree. i used the hole method when i first started as well, but i quickly switched to chisels since i find the look much much more appealing. but that's just me.
