How to sew / embroider twisted chain stitch

In this DROPS video we show how to sew / embroider twisted chain stitch. Insert the needle from the wrong side and through to the right side where you would like the chain stitch to begin. Thread the needle down through the hole the strand came up through, then to the right side again approx. 2 cm further on – allow the strand to lie in a loop around the tip of the needle. Pick up the loop and twist it 2-3 times before laying it down again under the tip of the needle. Pull the strand through carefully, so the stitch is neat. If you want more stitches in height, repeat from the beginning. Finish by thread the needle through the piece approx. 0.5 stitches in front of the loop and pull it through to the wrong side. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. This video has NO SOUND - You must read a pattern using this technique to be able to follow this video properly.
