Mirrored Chevron Stitch In Hand Embroidery (Step By Step & Video)

Mirrored Chevron Stitch is a part of the chevron stitch family. This stitch can be used as a layer or for filler to any design. 

What you will need?

• Any fabric.
• Embroidery hoop, 15cm (6″) (Bigger if you are working on a larger design) ( You can purchase a set of 6 hoops from Amazon for your basic needs.)
• Tapestry needle
• Embroidery thread (You can buy this pack of 36 shades of the DMC embroidery floss.)

How many strands of floss do you need for making the Mirrored Chevron Stitch?

You can use all 6 strands of the floss. But if you are working on a finer design, then start with 2 strands of floss and increase the number of strands according to your design. I have used all 6 strands for making this stitch.
