Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 337: Barred Witch Stitch

Today, we have a variation of the Herringbone Stitch. Logically, it would be called Threaded Herringbone Stitch. 

However, there are several versions of the Threaded Herringbone Stitch. 

We have already done two,  #290 that looks totally different 


and TAST #121 Twisted Lattice Band, where the threading is double.



I found Barred Witch Stitch in Mary Thomas's Dictionary of Embroidery Stitches.

Friday Homework for Lesson 336: Shadow Stitch

This stitch is easy, but stitching on sheer fabric is not!

As this stitch is not suitable for Aida, I skipped that sampler.
