Stitching

Pricking irons, stitching awls, waxed thread, harness needles, beeswax, and stitching ponies for clean, consistent saddle stitching by hand.

Choose the stitch spacing and thread together for the appearance you want. The needle must also suit the thread and the actual hole, rather than the iron’s spacing alone. Our thread and needle guide explains that choice.
For the working sequence, from preparing the stitch line to securing the last stitches, follow hand stitching leather for beginners.
