The answer is LADDER STITCH.

The "ladder stitch" is a technique used primarily in sewing and fabric crafts to close a seam or opening discreetly. Often employed in hand sewing, this method is particularly useful for closing gaps in stuffed toys, cushions, and other fabric items.

The stitch is named for its resemblance to a ladder when completed, as it creates a series of horizontal and vertical stitches that blend seamlessly with the surrounding fabric. To execute the ladder stitch, you begin by threading a needle and making small, even stitches along the edge of the fabric. These stitches are pulled tight, drawing the fabric edges together and effectively closing the seam with minimal visible stitching.
