Cross-stitch tutorial

HOW TO CHOOSE THE STRANDS?

A thread can be divided into 6 strands.

11CT: use 3 strands for embroidery.

14CT: use 2 strands for embroidery.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE THREAD COLOR?

Printed fabric

1.
Identify the symbols or numbers on your pattern.

2. Look for the corresponding numbers on the legend.

3. Select the appropriate color based on the indicated number.

NOTES

1. No outer frame, keep your hands clean before sewing.

2. To facilitate embroidery, the color on the printed fabric uses a contrast color, which is different from the actual pattern color.

3. Like printed cross-stitch, the pattern has been printed on the fabric (printed), so before finishing the embroidery, the fabric cannot touch water, otherwise the printed part will disappear. Like non-printed cross-stitch, no pattern is printed on the fabric.

4. To improve the appearance of the work, the backstitch should be the last step of the work, please refer to the drawing on paper to make the backstitch. 11CT uses 2 strands for the backstitch, 14CT uses 1 strand for the backstitch.

5. The images and product dimensions are for reference only. Detailed information is in accordance with the final product. Due to manual measurement, there will be an error of 3-5 cm.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. After completing the entire pattern, put the fabric in water (below 30℃) for more than 3 hours, until the entire pattern disappears, wash it again with clean water.

2. Dry it by laying it flat in a ventilated place, to protect the threads from being damaged, please iron the artwork on the back of the fabric with a steam iron until it becomes flat.
