near-far-far-near suture pattern
an excellent tension suture. The first bite is made at right angles to the wound and close to it, under the wound, to emerge a long way from the wound, on the far side. The second bite begins closer to the wound, and crosses underneath it to emerge beyond the first point of entry. The two ends are tied there.
