Interlaced Double Running Stitch No 2
A variety of running stitch
Double interlaced running stitch creates an attractive line of thin loops.
Work two rows of running stitch. Lace or thread the stitches with a contrasting colour or weight thread. It is also possible to thread a fine ribbon through the running stitch foundation.
Use a tapestry needle to avoid splitting the foundation running stitch. With this stitch, take care to thread and not to pick up any of the fabric.
This stitch makes a good crazy patchwork stitch particularly in combination with other stitches. A bead, detached chain stitch or a French knot can be placed above each hump.
