At aZenera, we envision a world where creativity and craftsmanship are accessible to everyone.

Create a line using back stitches (you can check the previous instructions for the Back Stitch).

  1. Bring the needle up through the fabric.
  2. Pass the needle under the 2nd stitch.
  3. Next pass the needle under the 1st stitch. Continue this pattern to create a series of interconnected loops.

Uses: This stitch is great for borders and outlines, combining a running stitch with a looped element for a braided effect.
