The Fishnet Stitch, often referred to as the Knit Stitch, derives its name from the mesmerizing fishnet effect it produces in the fabric.

In this technique, a single color of silk thread serves as the foundation, weaving a striking background. Subsequently, silk of a contrasting hue is delicately added at vertical or slanted angles.
