How to do the Woven Trellis Stitch
This is a rich-looking stitch, used especially to make flower petals. The weaving done to make this stitch gives a dimensional effect. It is a common stitch used in the needle weaving style of embroidery and Kamal Kadai from India. This stitch is done between three Straight Stitches.

| Fig 1: Make three Straight Stitches of equal length, or with the middle stitch slightly longer. Try to give them a common center point, as illustrated. | Fig 2: Bring the needle out from the common center point. Start weaving by taking the needle under the first and last laid threads. |
 |  |
| Fig 3: Then, turn around and this time, take the needle under the middle laid thread. | Fig 4: Repeat the process. Do not pluck the fabric underneath. The only time you take the needle through the fabric is when you start and when you end. |

| Fig 5: A finished woven trellis would look like this. The top looks slightly clumped since the middle stitch was a little too long. |
