LESSON 70: CROSS POINT COMBINED WITH HALF POINT IN HORIZONTAL AND IN PARALLEL

Tutorial for Cross stitch combined with half a point horizontally and in parallel:

We present the tutorial for the arm cross stitch combined with a horizontal and parallel half point.

It can also be embroidered in the same color of the fabric or different depending on the final effect we want to achieve.

Looking at the video, we see in Fig. A: We embroider the first 1 x 1 diagonals to the right as many times as necessary.

In fig. B: When going backwards, the diagonals we sew one yes and another no alternately.

In Fig. C: If stitching in parallel, the crosses and half stitches coincide.

Fig. D: If the idea is to sew stitches diagonally, the stitches will have to be sewn alternately.

From here we invite you to try it and you will be surprised by the effect. I encourage you to try and you will love it.

Follow the tutorial step by step and you will see how while you are sewing you can think of other ways to make other stitches, even combined with all the ones that I am putting here. You can use it both in borders, as in curtains, sheets, towels etc. or as a simple ornament point in one of your paintings. It is best to follow the video step by step here:

Materials

• You need a blunt needle. In your trusted haberdashery they can advise you on this.
• Thimble, we know that it is not easy to get used to it, but the earlier you adapt, the better, you will avoid many punctures.
• Special pearl or mouliné thread. Or you can also use fine crochet yarn
• Frame, there are made of wood, plastic and silicone. Lately I spend the silicone ones because I like them better, but that goes to taste.
• Light, the more the better and to be able to be natural
