Day One of learning counted cross stitch. Tips welcome! #audiostitching
FantasyChick Count twice so you only have to stitch once! Nothing is worse than getting into a groove only to realize you messed up the count and have to pull all the stitches to fix it....so I hear 🙄 4y

quirkyreader I don‘t do them anymore because of my vision. But a good trick is to use a pencil and mark the centre of the fabric. That way you can match it up to the pattern easier, 4y

BookishTrish @CoverToCoverGirl 🥰 Thanks - count twice seems like great advice! 4y
LeahBergen Always make sure you cross the same way (which it looks like you‘re doing). And no knots in the back! 😊 4y
BookishTrish @LeahBergen Excellent advice - thank you! 4y
dragondrool I always make a copy of the chart and color it in with colored pencil as I go. 4y
BookishTrish @dragondrool - that‘s next level clever! 4y
dragondrool @BookishTrish I don't lose my spot that way! Also, the original chart stays clean, in case I want to do the same kit again. 4y
