What is Cross-Stitch.
Cross-Stitch is a type of crochet that uses basic stitches found in knitting and crochet. Cross-Stitch stitches are worked in the same manner as other crochet stitches, but they are crocheted using a different fabric as the main stitch. For example, achilles’ heel is a cross-stitch stitch used to create an ornate effect on clothing.
What are the different types of stitches used in Cross-Stitch
There are six basic cross-stitch stitches: slip, press, row, round, magic loop, and half double Crochet (HDC). These stitches can be combined to create even more complex patterns. For example, a slip knot can be worked with chain maille or worsted weight yarn to create a beautiful lace design.
How to Do Cross-Stitch Projects
When working with any type of fabric, it’s important to know how to do cross-stitches correctly so that your project looks its best. Here’s a quick guide on how to do cross-stitches:
1) Chain 2 together form the first hook (on the right side), then work one inch of slip stitch into each chain (this will become your working thread).
2) Work one row of slip stitches into the front loop only (this will become your working loop).
3) Make another chain and work one inch of Slip Stitch into each chain (the two loops should now look like this):
4) Turn your work so that it is facing away from you, and make a single slip stitch into the first working loop (the top left hole in the image). This should leave an opening at the bottom of your ‘work’ piece which, you will then fill with another single Slip Stitch (bottom right hole in image). Now turn your work so that it is facing again towards you, and make another single Slip Stick into the second working loop (bottom left hole in image). This should leave an open space at the top of your ‘work’ piece which you will then fill with yet another single Slip Stitch. Continue this process until all holes have been filled – there should now be a series of open spaces at the bottom and top of your ‘work’ piece!
