No need to get confused with the moving guy, the running stitch provides a quick way to create a design outline. You can use two methods.
The first is to sew: Simply knit needles and floss with fabric at a steady pace to make a few stitches at a time, as if you were sewing a stitch. The second is the "bribe" or "stab" method: push the needle backwards with the fabric, then release the front slightly, creating one stitch at a time.
The backstitch is great when you need a straight line, like when you create an outline or embroidered letter in your hand.
Start by pulling the needles and floss through the fabric and forward a stitch. From the bottom, pull the index out of the length of your desired stitch, pull through the fabric, and lower the sweater and the flask at the end of the previous stitch.
3. Split stitching
Like the backstitch, split stitching creates a solid line, but its broken texture is its own. This stitch is another good option for text and outline, but it also works well for completing designs.
To get started, pull your needles and floss through the fabric and make a straight stitch. With your needles and floss underneath your hoop, bring the needle up in the middle of your newly created stitch. Keep the front length equal to your primary stitch. Repeat the index with the center of each stitch.
4. Sew the stem
This stitch got its name - you guessed it - from used to make flower stalks and vines. But really, this is a great option for anything that needs curves.
Begin by creating a straight stitch, similar to split stitching. Then, bring the needle and floss the bottom of the fabric, but instead of getting in the middle of your primary stitch, go to the side of the stitch.
