Today I am once again taking a stitch from Totsuka Embroidery Stitch Book #8 (Detached Chain Stitch).
The stitch has no name in the book, so I will give it the descriptive name of Woven Long Tail Chain Stitch.
Begin by making a Long Tail Chain Stitch
Add another slanted stitch on the other side.
Now begin weaving (keep the thread or change to another colour) between the tails.
Anchor at the tip.
Homework:
Work on these samplers.

What an unusual stitch! Would make a pretty little flower, although it also reminds me of a rocket ship 😂
What a delight - I look forward to seeing how you use that one!
I like this stitch sample. Should be good to play with.
Interestingt stitch. I must try it.
The long tail chain stitch would look like a bunch of [3] flowers if it was the other way up and no weaving.
How cute!
Nice stitch Queenie, with or without the weaving!
Hugs,

Your name is very descriptive, but I keep seeing a pineapple, so my head thinks of it that way. I saw Maureen's 3 together, and it makes a very attractive flower arrangement.
