Gridding your Cross Stitch Fabric

Lauren Mills.Feb 21, 2025
Gridding your cross stitch fabric is a handy way to keep your stitches organized and avoid mistakes. It involves marking a light grid on your fabric, usually every 10 stitches, to match the pattern chart. You can use a washable fabric pen, pencil, or special gridding thread. This helps you easily count stitches, find your place, and catch errors before they grow into big problems.
