Raised Stem Stitch

Raised stem stitch. First fill the shape with evenly spaced vertical straight stitches. Next come up at A at the lower left corner of the shape. Weave under the first vertical straight stitch from right to left and gently pull the slack, allowing the wrap to rest along the bottom of the shape. Next weave under the second vertical stitch from right to left. Continue weaving under every straight stitch, bringing your needle down at B once you reach the bottom right corner of the shape. Come back up at C and repeat, creating another row while weaving under every straight stitch, before coming back down at D. Add as many rows as needed to fill the shape.
