darktable, inkscape, and a watermark

[Brian Cluff]

Are you talking about something that looks like the attached?

If so, I can put together a video later, since it's a bit of an advanced 
topic, but in a nutshell the magic happens with using "pattern along 
path" under path effects.  You just have to draw one of the threads. 
Then use that one thread as the input for your patten.  Then set the 
Pattern Along Path to do a repeated pattern and adjust the spacing to 
your liking.
