Used both French and colonial knots

Here’s something I made from really old yarn and scrap denim. About 1/3 in French knots and the rest in colonial knots - once I started using the figure 8 method, I felt the stitch stays put better. Looks messy since I did extra knots to make the heart “puffier”. I’m looking forward to more colonial knot use! ???? Anyone prefer colonial over French knots?
