About this service

Chain stitch, made on the same machines as chenille, creates a line of interlocking loops with a distinctive hand-crafted, vintage feel. It was the standard for work-shirt names, bowling shirts, and old varsity script. Chain-stitch designs are built from continuous paths, and fills are made by spiralling rows of chain stitch. We plan those paths so the design sews smoothly with few breaks.

How we build it

  • Continuous chain-stitch paths that reduce breaks and restarts
  • Spiral or row fills built from chain stitch for solid areas
  • Script and lettering spaced for chain stitch's thicker line
  • Suitable for vintage-inspired apparel, workwear names, and varsity details

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Both come from the same machines. Chenille pulls the loops up for a fluffy texture; chain stitch keeps them flat as a line of interlocking loops.

Not true chain stitch, which needs a chain-stitch or chenille machine. A standard machine can imitate the look, but the texture isn't the same.
