How to Duplicate Stitch

Finshing the V

To finish duplicating the first V in duplicate stitch, all you have to do is put the needle back through the point where you started. Pull through. This makes the second "leg" of the V.

You have now finished one V. Continue in this manner, working from right to left, until you have as many stitches as you would like in the bottom row.
