CROSS STITCH - INDIVIDUAL
An individual cross stitch is worked in the same sequence as a
row of cross stitch. Bring the needle out at 1 and insert at 2,
completing half the cross stitch. Then, bring it out at 3, directly
below 2 and insert the needle at 4, above 1. Your individual cross
stitch is complete.
CROSS STITCH - ROW
Bring the needle out at 1, insert at 2 and out again at 3. Continue
this process until the desired number of stitches is completed for
that row.
At the end of the row, work back, bringing the needle out at 4,
inserting at 5 and out again at 6.
FINISHING OFF
To finish off your thread run the needle through the back of four
or five stitches and trim the thread close to the cloth.
Should work become soiled, handwash in cold water with mild
soap. Rinse well and dry flat in shade. Do not wring. Press from
the back with a warm iron.
