This is an interesting version of Herringbone stitch. I'll have to try it now. Thank you for sharing.

My apologies, The Pagoda stitch js similar to Chevron, not Herringbone.

I used plain Chevron stitch quite a lot for smocking when my girls were small. This is quite different and I like the way the thread twists over the stitches at the top and bottom.
