How to Hand Embroider a Rose

Step 4How to Do the Stem Stitch Part 1

How to Do the Stem Stitch Part 1
I chose to do the stem stitch to make this rose because it can be used in nearly every embroidery project and its the only stitch I know. The stem stitch is also one of the simplest stitches to do and is learned very easily.
Before you do any stitch you need to separate the 6 strands that normally come in embroidery floss. Grab 2 strands and pull then proceed to the first step of the stem stitch

First, tie a knot of the very end of your embroidery floss
