For this tutorial we should be know how to do chain stitch.   Here I have done the base chain stitch row using 4 strands of thread.

• For the overlaying part I have chosen a contrast colour thread with 6 strands.  
• Bring the thread up at one end of the chain stitch.
• Pass the thread through the chain loop from inside the chain without the picking the fabric.  I have started to pass the needle facing upwards. 

Now pass the needle through the next chain loop with the needle facing downwards. 

Repeat the same alternating the direction of the needle in each chain loop.

A fnished row of overlayed threaded chain stitch looks like this.

Hope this tutorial is useful.  Will be back with another stitch tutorial soon.  Till then, have a nice day.
