Chidori Kagari -
How-To Diagram for Left-handers

    With thanks to Gen Ladwig, a lefty herself, here is a much requested diagram for working the herringbone stitch for left-handers. While the herringbone stitch is not the same as Chidori Kagari ( the fundamental stitch used in Temari,  and all of the stitches that evolve from Chidori Kagari), the flow and direction will be the same. If you can stitch Chidori Kagari, you can work just about any pattern in Temari, since this stitch is the basis of just about all designs.
