INSTRUCTIONS FOR CROSS STITCH

1. Always begin stitching from the Centre of

your design and work outwards.

2. First find the Centre of your fabric by

folding it in half lengthwise and

crosswise. Mark the Centre point where

the two fold lines meet with a pin. The

arrows on your chart correspond to the

fold lines on your fabric.

3. Now find the Centre square at the Centre

of your Chart. The position of the Centre

square corresponds to the position of your

pin. Begin stitching from the Centre point.

4. When you look closely at your fabric you

can see it is made up of small squares.

Each square on your Fabric represents a

Square on your Chart. You will stitch one

cross stitch over each square on your

fabric. The different Symbols show you

the correct colour to use in each square.

5. To begin stitching, first thread your

needle with 2 (or sometimes 3) strands of

cotton.

6. When making your first few stitches

remember to leave a 2 cm ÒtailÓ at the

back of your work. Hold this ÒtailÓ so that

your first few stitches are worked over it.

This secures your thread evenly. Never tie

a knot in your thread. Follow the Cross

Stitch Instructions.

7. Cross stitch is worked in rows of even,

slanted stitches, usually from left to right

laying down half the crosses, then back

from right to left to complete them. Note

the top stitch must always be slanted the

same way. When stitching try to keep the

tension of your thread even and do not

pull too tight. It is often easier to sew your

design using an embroidery hoop to hold

the material.

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.
