It really depends on the effect you want to achieve...do 1 full stitch at a time to get a more uniformed look, or do /// then \\\ for a more...um...messier look. Experiment a little, see how they would look.

You can stitch with two strands, just as with normal thread, but you cannot use the loop method unless you want a really tweedy effect.
