Embroidery Ball Stitch

A stitch used in making ornamental balls for children. Bind some loose rags tightly together into a ball. Wind string across as in the illustration, forming sections. Thread a needle with bright-coloured wool, and work round and round, passing the needle each time under a strand of string. If different colours be used the effect is very pleasing.
