How To Cross Stitch
Step One- Buy a Cross Stitch Kit
Now I know it will be tempting but get a small kit at Hobby Lobby before you jump into anything bigger. Buying a kit allows you to have all the materials you could need for this beginning cross stitch.
Step Two- The Pattern
Once you are home with your very own kit open the kit. The first thing you will notice is the pattern. Each symbol correspond with a different color floss and familiarize yourself with this language of symbols and numbers, it’s quite important.
Step Three- The Floss
 Once you have looked over the pattern find the middle and then find the floss that correspondes with that symbol and separate two strands from the 6 that can be found in every skien and cut a length that spans from right under your elbow to your pointer finger.
Step Four- The Stitch
Another great part about kits is they come with a directory of every stitch you could ever need to use in that pattern. Follow those instructions and if you have any questions leave you question on my blog post.
