Double Woven Stitch Instructions & Diagram
You can see the diagram of this stitch below.
- Start making two diagonal stitches upwards to the right by skipping two canvas intersections (one next to the other)
- Move the needle (behind the canvas) one canvas thread to the right and two canvas threads down, that will be the starting point, repeat the process until the row is finished. Next, move the needle (behind the canvas) three canvas threads down and two to the left
- Follow the same logic but in reverse, instead of going from left to right, you must go from right to left
