Split Stitch

Split stitch is an easy basic embroidery stitch used for outlining and filling. This stitch makes a closer chain like line unlike chain stitch which does not involve splitting the thread.

Come up at 'a' and go down at 'b' working a straight stitch.

Bring the needle up at 'c' halfway in between 'a' and 'b', so that it splits the thread and pull through.

Insert the needle at 'd' and continue this pattern till the end.

Keep the stitches regular and use a sharp needle to divide the thread easily.
