India is a country with a wealth of interesting embroidery stitches, and it was on an Indian blog I found todays beautiful stitch called Italian Knot Stitch! Where it originates from, and if there is another name seems to be a mystery.
Anyway you can read about that and find Anita's excellent photo tutorial at Artistic Fingers,
and here is my try. Just follow the pictures.
Then, repeat in the same way for the second stitch, and so on.
Homework:
Play around with the three samplers.

It is great to play around with stitches.
I like the look of the chain of stitches.
You really come up with the best stitches!
It's like a chain stitch with extra bits.
It looks a bit like a variation on cable chain stitch..
Italian Knot Stitch is a beauty! And good tutorial, I'm going to give it a try, thank you.
This looks like a great stitch to play with!
Pretty stitch! And the sampler is looking lovely.
