Stitch tutorial - Fancy laced running stitch # 2

Another lovely addition to the stitch tutorial series :-) This stitch can be used as a border,neckline,cq seam etc...



Step 1 – Work five non aligned rows of running stitches.






Step 2 – Thread the needle with a second colour and come up under the first stitch of the bottom row as shown.





Step 3 – Pass the needle starting from the bottom row through all the diagonal stitches as shown and pull.




Step 4 – Pass the needle under the previous stitch in the top row and through all the diagonal stitches as shown and pull.


Step 5 - Pass the needle under the previous stitch in the bottom row and through all the diagonal stitches as shown and pull.





Repeat steps 4 and 5 until end.




Step 6 - Thread the needle with a third colour and come up under the first stitch of the third row from top as shown.





Repeat steps 3-5 until end.

  1. This is slightly different from the Laced Running I did earlier.
    Single colour or all colours, each version looks good.

  4. This is beautiful, for a moment I thought it to be the Fancy laced running stitch itself, then realized the difference.
    Cool...
