Re: Embroidery : Embroidery stitch index with links & tutorials

twisted chain stitch:
Fig 1: Bring the needle out through A, which lies on the stitch line. Now, put the needle in through B, which lies towards the left of A and bring it out from C. C, agian, lies on the stitch line.
Fig 2: Now loop the thread around the needle as we would in a normal chain stitch.
Fig 3: When the needle is pulled out, we get a twisted loop as shownFig 4: For the next loop, instead of putting in the needle in C as we would normally in a chain stitch, we would put it in through a point D. D lies horizontally left of C. Continue this pattern of stitching.

Fig 4: For the next loop, instead of putting in the needle in C as we would normally in a chain stitch, we would put it in through a point D. D lies horizontally left of C. Continue this pattern of stitching.

Fig 5: A finished line of twisted chain would look like this. Remember that only alternate alphabets would lie on the stitch line. For every new loop, the beginning point would be on the immediate left of the previous loop.
