Also known as : Knotted Herringbone Stitch, Coral Knotted Herringbone Stitch
This stitch is done over a base of herringbone stitch. It is an incorporation of coral stitch over herringbone stitch.
You need to know how to do herringbone stitch and coral stitch before beginning this tutorial.
Herringbone Stitch: Make a row of herringbone stitch for the base. | |
Fig 1: Now using a contrasting thread, begin by bringing out the needle from the right end of the herringbone stitch, as shown. Now, start working the coral stitch from right to left. Instead of going through the fabric each time to make a knot, we go under each ‘cross’ of the herringbone stitch. The knot will form over the crossing. | Fig 2: A finished row of tied herringbone would look like this. |
Thanks! That clarifies that stitch a little for me. I’m going to try it next week.
Awesome, Susan! Let me know how it came out.
