Kugurizashi (kuguri = weaving under) zashi (sashiko stitches) is a two step process which is easy to do although it looks complicated. First you stitch a pattern of simple straight stitches. Second you weave thread under those stitches in a way that creates the design. The kit comes with diagrams as well as english instructions.
