Basic Tutorial on Hand Embroidery Stitches: Illustrated Tutorial on Double Chain Embroidery Stitches

This embroidery method is the same as chain embroidery. The only difference is that double chain embroidery is embroidered on two parallel lines. Therefore, the final effect is a bit like open feather embroidery.

To learn this kind of embroidery, it is best to be familiar with the technique of chain embroidery. I'll start on two parallel stitch lines and embroider from beginning to end. All embroidery points will be on these two embroidery lines.
