Holbein Stitch - Tutorial

 Hi all

Thanks for your response for Holbein stitch design

Today I am happy to share with you the tutorial for doing the Holbein stitch. It is also known as Double running stitch i.e) the running stitch stitch takes a forward and reverse pass.  It is a simple stitch that comes under the family of running stitch.  It is used in Black work, Assisi Embroidery, Kasuti Embroidery. It creates an identical pattern on both sides of the fabric. Other names include Line stitch, Square stitch,  Two sided Line stitch.

Now let's move on to the tutorial.  The picture itself makes you clear how to do it.


Back in 2013 I have done a lunch towel project using this stitch.  You can view it here.  

You can view the other embroidery stitch tutorials and designs here.

Hope this tutorial helps you in learning Holbein stitch.  You can use any design for blackwork, Assisi embroidery, Kasuti embroidery to use this stitch.
