How to sew / embroider back stitch

Keywords: embroidery, floral, vest,

In this DROPS video we show how to sew / embroider back stitches.
Insert the needle from the wrong side and to the right side where you wish the stitch to start. Skip 1-1.5 cm, insert the needle down and then up to the right side again approx. 1 -1.5 cm further on. Pull the strand through. You have worked a stitch with a gap to the next stitch. Insert the needle in the hole where the previous stitch ended and bring the needle up on the right side approx. 1 -1.5 cm further on. Continue like this if you want several back stitches. When the last back stitch has been worked, insert the needle where the previous stitch ended. Pull the strand to the wrong side.

Back stitch can be worked vertically, horizontally, diagonally and round in a circle.

We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video.
