Double-rowed ornamental seam (figs. [65], [66], [67]).—Begin with any one of the hems already described, then counting as many threads downwards, as are clustered together in the first row, draw out a second thread, and cluster the perpendicular threads in this second line together, as shown in figs. [65] and [66]. On the right side the stitch is straight (fig. [67]). Coloured cottons should be used for all the above patterns of hem-stitch, when they are to be introduced into coloured embroideries.
