Do you remember #119 Alternating Magic Split Stitch and #120 Magic Split Stitch?
Instructions for Pueblo Stitch can be found in many places, on YouTube and at Sarah's Hand Embroidery Tutorials as well as at Arts&Design under Pueblo Stitch.
Q: So what differs between Alternating Magic Split Stitch and Pueblo Stitch?
A: The placement of the needle!
Compare the picture of Alternating Magic Split Stitch with the photo of Pueblo Stitch.
![]() |
In Alternating Magic Split Stitch, the tip of the needle comes out inside the previous 'Chain Stitch'. |
In Pueblo Stitch, the tip of the needle comes out in the hole just outside the 'Chain Stitch'. |
Here is my photo tutorial.
You need two threads of different colours on the needle.Take a Back Stitch by splitting the threads, red on the left and blue on the right.
Pull the threads through.
Take a Back Stitch and exit in the hole at the bottom of the 'Chain Stitch'.
Homework:
Try to squeeze in a line of Pueblo Stitch on your samplers. The Mottled Wool Scribble Cloth is getting fuller and fuller. Is there any space left?
