When I wroted the headline for this post I mistakenly wrote Detached Herringbone Stitch instead of Vertical Herringone Stitch!
To work the stitches towards you in a one-by-one fashion you are actually making a coloumn of detatched Herringbone stitches!
Be that as it may, this stitch is easy and takes a curve quite smoothly. It could be used along a hem, as a column or indeed a stem of a flower, or if you pack the columns tightly it could be a filling stitch.
I don't know about you, but I like it!

Vertical, detached.. it is detached and doesn't appear to be always vertical. But it does look like a useful stitch for filling or edge work.
I like it too!
Such pretty thread on the red silk! I love the way it looks!
