How to Herringbone Stitch
Project Map
A classic technique we've used time and again! Be sure to check out our Herringbone, 5 Stitch, and Setting the Mood projects to see this technique in action.
Using any size of Chinese Knotting Cord, weave over and under your leather to create a herringbone style section that's perfect for color-blocking. For measurements, consider that 1 foot of CKC will create approximately 1 inch of herringbone weave. You can certainly use other stringing materials to herringbone with, too! Try it with C-Lon, skinny leather, even waxed linen!
