Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 352: Battlement Stitch

The Battlement Stitch, today's new stitch, must not be confused with the Battlement Filling Stitch or the Battlement Couching Stitch. Those latter names are for a laid stitch pattern in which long straight stitches are laid horizontally and vertically, then couched down. We will eventually learn it, but for today, let's concentrate on the Battlement Stitch. It's easy-peasy, just stagger Buttonhole Stitches.

I found it in Pintangle's Stitch Dictionary.

Please also have a look at my photos:


Change the colour and add a new

row below, offset by one or a few holes.


Add another row in a different colour.


OR, work every row in the same colour.

    Oh, that is interesting. I like it best with the multiple colours but I can see how one colour would be useful.

    An easy, but really striking stitch!

    Yes, that stitch will add a solid presence won't it? And layers of it would be an interesting effect.
