Benvenuti!
Welcome!
Bienvenue!
Needlepoint is a canD brand. It is also an enjoyable hobby that can be taken anywhere and needs the use of only a few basic types of stitches.
Learn the different types of stitches and when to use them:
Half Cross Stitch: This is good for small areas, but not for covering large ones, as it will distort the shape of your canvas. Start at the top left of your canvas or block of color. Work from left to right in a row across the canvas and then return.
Basket Weave: This stitch allows good coverage of the canvas with the least distortion and should be used in large areas. Work this stitch diagonally, starting at the top right hand corner of the area.
Back stitch: This stitch is used for stitching a very small piece or outlining an area using thread.
Blanket stitch: This stitch is used to finish the edges of a project. |
