Have you tried this Sashiko pattern before? I stitched Urokozashi
Thank you for watching!
In this video, I'll try Urokozashi which is comprised only with horizontal stitches. I originally found this pattern in books about Nagai Sashiko and Yuza Sashiko which are traditional Sashiko from Yamagata prefecture.
The idea of creating a pattern only with horizontal stitches (Yokozashi) is similar to that of Kogin but you don't count the weave when you stitch with this one. Instead, you rely on your own stitch length and skills to stitch straight and evenly.
I haven't mastered the skills yet but I wanted to share this beautiful traditional pattern!
There seem to be many different types of traditional Sashiko in different regions and I'd love to learn more!
