Normally
a chain is whipped by passing the thread under the chain but this
method of whipping is slightly different and also the final stitch
resembles more of Stockinette stitch than Magic chain stitch.
Step
1 – Work a row of chain stitches.
Step
2 – Thread the needle with a second colour, bring it up as shown
and whip only one side of the chain by picking up the loop from outside
as shown.
Step 3 – Continue whipping till end and go back down.
Step
4 – Bring up the needle and thread close to the end point in step 3
Step
5 – Whip the second side of the chain stitches by picking up the loop
from inside the chain as shown.
Hint
: If the direction of whipping the second side is changed then you
won't get the stockinette stitch effect.
Step
6 – Go back down near the starting point.
Happy
stitching!

Charming, and possibly, for some people, an easier way to obtain the Magic Chain effect..
Thank you for this tutorial, it is a beautiful stitch.
I like this idea. It adds a lot of interest to the chain stitch and looks far more complicated, especially using the same thread for all the steps. Thanks.
Good tute Anita. Even leaving one side not whipped could look good.
not seen this done before Anita thanks for sharing it I am sure I will be using it before long
Looks cool...shall use it for some designs..Thanks for sharing Anita
