1. Bring the needle up through the fabric. 
  2. Take a small stitch forward.
  3. Instead of moving the needle forward along the fabric, bring it back back up.
  4. Bring the needle down through the fabric creating a diagonal stitch. Repeat this process, making subsequent stitches slightly overlapping the previous ones, to form a continuous line.

Uses: Ideal for creating smooth lines, curves, vines, and elegant lettering.
