Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 245: Spine Chain Stitch

After last week's fiasco, at last, we are ready to celebrate that we have now done a total of 400 stitches,  in TAST (Take A Stitch Tuesday) and Sunday Stitch School. They can all be seen here:


So today we are learning Sunday Stitch School's stitch #245! It is called Spine Chain Stitch and is similar in looks to Barred Chain Stitch (TAST #12), but it is worked differently. 

It can be learned by watching this video by Pumora.


Or by following my photo instructions:

Start with a Chain Stitch.



Add a slanting Straight Stitch at the side.

Follow it with another Chain Stitch.






End with either a Chain or a side stitch.
Anchor.






Homework:
Add here.

Congrats on 400 stitches.
Stitch has endless discoveries and fun.

A nice stitch for a thorny stem or bramble thicket!

Such a pretty variation! I think it's much easier to experiment with as the barred chain stitch.
