PLS Chainstitcher Script

A monoline script inspired by vintage embroidery!

CHAINSTITCHER SCRIPT is a font designed to evoke the hand-operated look of chain-stitch embroidery.

It is directly inspired by the flowing script found on bowling shirts, letterman jackets, and mechanic’s name patches from the 1950s–60s. This script aims to capture the unique elements of lettering made on a “bonnaz” chainstitch machine: bouncy connections, slightly irregular turns, and a looseness that feels stitched rather than typeset.

Whether you’re a working chainstitcher using the font for client mockups and design reference, or you simply want a vintage monoline script with human imperfection, this is for you!
