Stem stitch (also known as crewel stitch, point de cable or stalk stitch) is an embroidery technique creating a cabled effect along the line of the embroidery design.

With the stem stitch, the thread travels forward, normally from left to right, on the surface of the cloth, before it enters the ground and travels back for a short distance, and then emerges again on the surface of the ground cloth, travelling forwards again, following the desired line of the design. The thread should always be kept below or to the right of the needle. The stem stitch resembles the outline stitch, the difference being the direction in which the stitches overlap: the stem stitch overlaps in a Z-direction, while the outline stitch overlaps in an S-direction.
