Stepped Running Stitch

About the Stepped Running Stitch

The Stepped Running Stitch is two parallel rows of running stitches. Each stitch from each row will lie between two stitches of the other. This ‘stepped’ structure will allow the creation of various embroidery patterns using a different thread. You may make more than two rows of running stitches and try out your variations.
