This elegant design is worked in graduated satin stitch, the middle
letter is done in point croise. This stitch is only worked on very thin
and transparent materials. Insert the needle into the material as for
the common back stitch, draw it out underneath the needle on the
opposite outline of the pattern so as to form on the wrong side a
slanting line. Insert the needle again as for common back stitch.
