why don't you knit a faux whip
stitch instead of embroidering it?
if it needs to be more outdoorsy,
how about some sort of tree-line?

if you want to add texture, just

to make it more "crafty", change
the pattern to hand-embroidery
make the stripe chunkier-change
to all-needle rib like this swatch
to look vintage we could stone
wash it - like this swatch...
can't decide between pointelle or
texture? this swatch has both...
