How to embroider chain stitch

Chain stitch

A series of loops, chain stitch can be used for straight or curving lines or even in rows to fill shapes.

Come out of the fabric at 1, where you want to begin, and leaving a loop, go back down again in the same hole at 2.

Bring the needle out again at 3, keeping the thread under the needle and repeat.

To finish, make a small stitch over the last loop and there you go, you have created your first stitch.
