Hishizashi is characterised by its diamond pattterns made in different shapes and with different colours. Hishizashi stitches are always worked over an even number of weft threads, in contrast to kogin zashi embrodieries, from the northwest of Japan, that are always worked over an uneven number of weft threads.
