Embroiderie 1
The embroidered motifs are created using Swiss Darning (also known as Duplicate Stitch). You’ll need one, two, or three strands of yarn, depending on the size of your yarn, and a darning needle. Each square on the chart corresponds to one stitch. To begin, thread your needle with the yarn and secure the end on the backside of your work.
Embroiderie 2
Insert the needle from backside of work, at the knitted stitch you want to duplicate, starting at the bottom of the 'V'.
Embroiderie 3
Bring the needle across from one side of the top of the stitch 'V' to the other. Pull the yarn through, then insert the needle back into the starting position to cover the stitch with the new yarn.
Embroiderie 4
Continue this process, following the chart design.
Embroiderie 5
Chain stitch:Bring the threaded needle up through the fabric at your starting point.Insert the needle back into the fabric a short distance away and bring it back up further along.Hold the thread down with your finger to form a loop before pulling the thread through.Pull the thread to secure the stitch.
