Cashmere Stitch (Horizontal Method):
Again, this stitch may be worked from right to left or left to right. In this demonstration, we will be working right to left. Bring the needle up at A. Move up diagonally to the right across 1 canvas intersection and bring the needle down at B. Move over to the left 2 canvas threads and down 1 canvas thread, bring the needle up at C. Move up diagonally to the right across 2 canvas intersections and bring the needle down at D. Move over to the left 2 canvas threads and down 1 canvas thread, bring the needle up at E. Move up diagonally to the right across 2 canvas intersections and bring the needle down at F. Move over the left 2 canvas threads and down 1 canvas thread, bring the needle up at G. Move up diagonally to the right across 1 canvas intersection and bring the needle down at H. This completes the first horizontal cashmere stitch.
To start the second stitch, we begin where we left off at H. Move down 3 canvas threads and over to the left canvas threads and bring the needle up at I. Move up diagonally to the right across 1 canvas intersection and bring the needle down at E. As you can see, the second stitch will work into the canvas spaces shared by the first stitch. Continue working in this manner until the horizontal row is complete. Start the second row under the first and work it in the opposite direction.
